All over the Globe Care-receivers, healthcare professionals and makers join forces to co-create careables: tailor-made open solutions that tackle permanent or temporary disability. Careables is an open and inclusive approach to healthcare based on digital fabrication and collaborative making.


We are looking at 3 years of co-creation and building a community that makes and shares open source hardware for health. The activities and designs are diverse. By showing a selection of Video Footage from the different sites of action in the Netherlands, Brazil, Ghana, Italy, Nepal, Germany and the online world we invite you to experience some of our key moments moments, be inspired and become part of the movement.
