Abstract

With this collaboration we want to do several things in this project: Help young people to share information more easily. We will do that with a social motion tracker app called G-Moji. We will use this to guide young people to send an emoji to their care provider each day. Help healthcare providers to notice things earlier in that information by using an existing e-module from youth care organisation Spirit.
