Tomorrow's Services is an internal strategic initiative at NORCE aimed at enhancing the ability to develop competitive research and innovation targeted at municipal health and care services, as well as preventative arenas.
Challenges
The initiative is based on the current challenges: increasing resource scarcity, demographic changes, increased pressure on service quality, and the need for more prevention and health promotion.
We aim to contribute to transformation and innovation to meet these challenges through systematic and coordinated research development in collaboration with the practice field.
Mapping and Mobilisation
A foundation for research and development has been established through:
- Mapping the challenges, relevant data sources, and relevant expertise within NORCE to respond to these challenges.
- Developing a resource bank with models for project development, co-creation, and implementation.
- An overview of co-creation arenas where we meet potential partners to collaborate on solving the mentioned challenges.
- Cross-disciplinary mobilization across research groups with expertise on relevant topics.
The Road Ahead
An important goal of the initiative is to strengthen the collaboration between practice, education, and research within health and care services, as well as preventive and health-promoting work. Efforts are being made to utilize resources and expertise in application and project development to enhance quality and support good initiatives.
Tomorrow's Services is a dynamic initiative where:
- New initiatives and ideas are welcome.
- New co-creation arenas and partnerships can be developed.
