Project description
The project focuses on sustainable economic valorisation of the multilingual app CLICK IT! and explores the potential for marketing by license in the Flemish care sector. CLICK IT! allows care providers to communicate clearly and fluently with non-native parents about healthcare topics related to children, eg. medication, potty training. It provides health information in different languages (including Arabic, English, Farsi, French, Dutch, Turkish) and supports caregivers in demand-driven consultations.
