TOOLKIT OF CARE is an international Action led by an interdisciplinary group of creativepractitioners, academics, researchers and arts organisations that specialise in creative technologiesand that have considerable experience in the production and dissemination of this kind ofknowledge across Europe and internationally, who have come together to form a “critical networkof care”. The network will collaborate to share their collective expertise and technical knowledgeemployed in creative ways to develop knowledge and methodologies of care. The main aim is toproduce a well formulated and integrated TOOLKIT OF CARE comprising articles, prototypes,audiovisual documentation, technical manuals, theoretical analysis, prototypes, and data. It will actas a model of how to successfully share knowledge and expertise across different geographicalregions and social groups.
