Abstract
The United Nations has set Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to build a more sustainable future. The SDG analyzes progress to understand major implementation challlenges, define disparities across nations or regions, and propose priorities for action. It has 17 objectives and more than 200 indicators. Cluster analysis was used to categorize the 10 municipalities. It was carried out using IBM SPSS software, which calculated the Euclidean distance and put the investigated regions into clusters with the traits they shared the most in common.

Abstract
This book results from an initiative by the European university consortium EUGLOH - European University Alliance for Global Health - between the University of Porto, Portugal (U.P.), and the University of the Arctic, Norway (UiT). To support the activity consisting of a three-day masterclass and workshop at UiT, designated as “Tromsø Idea Camp 2024 - Developing ideas through co-creation using human-centred design,” which had as its motto: . “Identify the needs and expectations of Vardesenteret’s patients before, during, and after treatment, considering their and volunteers’ points of view and creating projectual answers that foster empathy and communication”, a handbook was created, which later formed the basis of this book. It has three sections dedicated to Person-Centred Design in the Context of Health and Well-being. The first section— ”Reported Experience”, — Relates to the doctoral project “Ludic Activities in Health Context: An Anorexia Nervosa Case in the Hospital Environment,” which systematizes Ludic methods and tools created in and for a clinical context to support the treatment and monitoring of Anorexia Nervosa. Part of the project stems from collaborative work with São João Central Hospital, Portugal, in a group dedicated to treating eating disorders. The second section - “Documented Experience” — Explores the concept of Positive Play, coined by Giesteira, B., Cardoso, P., and Peçaibes, V. in various papers and book chapters from 2021 onwards. It presents a group of methods and tools created by the authors in recent years, such as the SEED Toolkit - “SomaEsthetics for Enabling Designers” (Giesteira, B. 2023) and the ANgame Collab (Cardoso, P., Peçaibes, V., Giesteira, B. 2022). The first tool aims to work on the concept of Somaesthetics, promoting empathy and contributing to identifying feelings and sensations interdependent on body activities and movements. The second tool aims to mediate playful sessions of Participatory Design, especially in the ‘user research’ phase. Other tools and methods were selected because, based on the aforementioned authors’ experience, they are most suitable for applied research in Health Technology Design. The third section - “Lived Experience” — Records the three days of the workshop dedicated to the themes: “Emotional Design and Somaesthetics”; “Human-Centered and Participatory Design”; “Ideation, Lateral Thinking, and Prototype.” In addition to the aforementioned themes, the different phases of development of the participants' projects from the various universities of the EUGLOH university consortium are recorded, which, in a Participatory Design approach, involved the collaboration of volunteers and oncology patients from Vardesenteret. This section shares the tools used to support each phase of product or service design and the final results of the low-fidelity prototypes.

Abstract
“Portal for sharing teaching experience in the inclusion of diversity” corresponds to axis 4.2. of the project Skills for the Next Generation of the University of Porto by supporting the development of innovative and inclusive pedagogical resources, sharing information, experience about inclusivity and ludic tools to cope with the individual differences integrated with the university's information system. This project is intended to contribute to the achievement of the inclusive priorities defined at the European level through a web platform capable of deliverable informative content and gamified resources (serious and critical games) to give adequate support for the university academy, not only to cope with the difference but to take advantage of it, dealing with human differences and specificities as an asset to the community, unlike shortcomings.

Abstract
Despite the prevailing paradigm of user-friendliness and enjoyment in mainstream game design and user interface design, intentional friction in game user interfaces that can be used to create meaningful experiences and to encourage reflection in players. This work aims to explore such use of intentional friction, providing designers with a valuable resource to generate unconventional game interfaces. As a starting point, we previously identified six strategies for intentional friction: (1) exploit memory shortcomings; (2) faulty feedback; (3) mismatched mental models; (4) impairment of ability; (5) deliberate inefficiency; and (6) oppressive constraints. Afterwards, to help operationalise these strategies and identify others, we ran co-creation workshops with game and UI designers, which lead to the development of a tool composed of three decks of cards, combining additional friction strategies, intentions, emotions, and ideation triggers, and enabling designers to create expressive game interfaces that intentionally incorporate friction as a design strategy. The Friction Firestarter toolkit is intended to inspire designers to explore various options and think creatively about friction in UI design. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.
