Ep. 110 | Designing for well-being – the role of interactive healing environments


Listen on your favourite podcast platform


In this episode of Stirring the Pot we’re having a kōrero with Yvonne Chan Cashmore.

 This podcast delves into the transformative concept of Interactive Healing Environments (IHEs) and their potential to enhance urban well-being. Dr. Yvonne Chan Cashmore, Associate Dean of Engagement for Auckland University of Technology (AUT), shares insights from her research on how IHEs not only improve individual health but also promote social cohesion, cultural integration, and the preservation of ancient knowledge.

Building on her multicultural background and passion for smart textiles, Dr. Chan Cashmore emphasises the importance of preserving cultural traditions while evolving them through technology. We also explore how IHEs can foster community well-being and create vibrant urban spaces by encouraging engagement and meaningful feedback.
