Participation in one´s own life belongs to everyone’s basic rights. The children who are clients of child protection services have a strong legal right to be participants in the matters that concern their own lives. Through the sense and experience of participation, children can better engage in the needs of the change in their lives, which reduces behavioral problems and risks of social exclusion. Children are the best experts of their own lives, thus they should be included in planning, execution and estimation of the services that are targeted to them. Family is the most important close community for a child and therefore well-being of the child requires companionship in upbringing between parents and the substitute care unit.

Abstract Gerontechnology supports older people with memory disorders to live at home and it makes it possible to learn new things and to maintain cognitive skills. Thus, the decline of functional ability in older adults slows down, rehabilitation becomes possible and the transition to service housing with 24-hout assistance is delayed. The aim of this thesis was to enhance and support people with memory disorders to live at home by utilising gerontechnology. The thesis assignment was to create a model for organising a gerontechnology workshop. Since the model was developed in collabora-tion with various actors, especially with older adults, this exploratory development work was carried out from the user oriented perspective. The aim of the gerontechnology workshop was to lower the adoption of gerontechnology and to support a timely and appropriate choice of technology. The model can be modified to meet the demands of various target groups. The web version of the model will be entrenched into the practices of the Learning and Service Environment Voimala at the Karelia University of Applied Sciences. The model can be used as a guideline when gerontechnology workshops are organised at Voimala....
