Summary

AGAPE aims to implement an advanced technology platform that provides services to older adults, formal and informal caregivers, and caregiving organizations.

Detailed description

AGAPE aims to promote an active and healthy lifestyle in the over-65 population and, in parallel, to improve the quality of life of caregivers (by reducing the burden of care), while also overcoming the possible digital literacy gap of users. The advantage of the AGAPE platform is to offer users highly personalized services based on their needs and digital capabilities, and innovative technologies integrated with each other that fit within the spatial services already available in local ecosystems. The project involves an impact-by-design approach that engages older people, caregivers, and managers of care organizations in a co-creation strategy. In addition, the solutions offered by the AGAPE platform will be extensively tested in a preliminary pre-validation phase in order to effectively meet the needs of end users.
