Develop actors with intellectual disabilities – publishing support

Kjell Stjernholm

Publishing a book on developing actors with intellectual disabilities through an established non-fiction publisher increases the chances of both greater and correct dissemination. It will be more easily discovered by libraries and educational institutions and be of higher quality than one which is self-published. The book will fill the void that exists in how to work to enable the transition to a professional life for actors with intellectual disabilities.

“Neo-Latin and Humanist Greek Poetry in the Baltic Region”

Språk- och litteraturcentrum, Lunds universitet

The purpose is to inventory, make available and disseminate poems that people around the Baltic Sea wrote in Latin and Greek for some 300 years. Many of these poems have never been published, others are in hard-to-find editions from the 17th and 18th centuries. Another reason is to present our poems from Sweden in a larger international historical context, to show how people migrated in the Baltic Sea region, what contacts they had with each other, how they thought, lived and created.

Squiggles, figures, houses and places – a book for children about Malmö

Sabina Dethorey

Our book will strengthen children’s and young people’s bond to Malmö. It will open doors to subject areas that are otherwise mostly accessible to adults. Since we start from real houses and places in Malmö, everyone will recognize them, at least some of them, and the rest will be easy to discover and explore. Through everyday experiences, we inspire reflections, share knowledge, give the key to new worlds of thought. We encourage readers to build on, both on our book and on Malmö’s development.

How do we undertake person-centredness? Textbook on person-centredness in research, education and practice

Anna-Karin Edberg

The goal is to provide support for the introduction of person-centredness in care, education and research. Many of the theories and frameworks that already exist provide scant guidance in how the knowledge should be implemented in practice. Through the book, such knowledge can be made available to those who actually need it: healthcare staff, students, teachers and researchers. By involving those affected, and a point of departure from their perspective, we ensure that the book is useful to the target groups and beneficial to healthcare.

A comic book about ADHD in women

Marie Tillman

The goal of the project is to make a comic book that reaches out to both people who have ADHD themselves and gives recognition to the difficulties one experiences throughout life, but also to create a greater understanding of ADHD in society. By facing the difficulties with humour, we hope to be able to meet a wider audience and not just the people who have ADHD themselves. We believe that recognition can make it easier to gain insight into the difficulties one faces in life with an ADHD diagnosis.
