Smart D8 Population Health Survey Series

How can people have more say in improving health and wellbeing in their communities?

This question is at the heart of a community-focused project led by The Digital Hub and Tyndall National Institute through the Smart D8 partnership, Boehringer Ingelheim, and local organisations in Dublin 8.

This project explores whether everyday digital tools, such as smartphones, smartwatches and smart rings, can support more personalised and fair approaches to health and wellbeing.

What better way to gather people’s views and understand the real challenges of everyday life than to survey the population of Dublin 8. The Dublin 8 community is already leading the way in improving health and wellbeing.

Including people who live, work and study in Dublin 8 helps build a clear picture of health and wellbeing needs. We hope to understand preferences around digital devices,  learn about the general health and wellbeing needs of our local community, and explore opportunities for more effective and personalised public health supports through wearable technologies. It has been designed to be inclusive, simple and anonymous. It can help shape future projects, such as where people may choose to share anonymous health data from their devices to help find early signs of health issues (“digital biomarkers”) and improve health outcomes.

By participating, you’ll help us build a more responsive and inclusive digital health future — starting in Dublin 8.
