framework
  • It promotes active ageing
  • The process of optimising opportunities for
    health, participation and security in order to

Some AAL Workshop feedback we need
  • to achieve a better balance between technology
    push and market pull in developing the sector.
  • to foster the organisational, process and
    cultural changes necessary to meet the challenge
    of personal life quality management at home.
  • to address interoperability in the context of
    services evolution and intensification over time
  • to see AAL within the broader experience of
    living and positive ageing in society, in our
    cities and in our communities
  • to consider the affectiveness (as much as the
    functionality) of system and their interfaces
