Stroke survivors usually stay in rehab for a long time thus, the rehab has lots of potential to improve stroke survivors' recovery. The "Next Generation of Stroke Rehabilitation Centres" competition challenges students to design a rehabilitation center for 30 stroke survivors with new and ambitious ideas. This competition aims to optimize rehabilitation design based on research outcomes to meet stroke survivors' needs better as they recover.
This student design competition has been launched and organized by the International Union of Architects (UIA) and the UIA Public Health Group, with the collaboration of the NOVELL Redesign team. The competition is sponsored by UIA and the Australian Health Design Council.
