Bridging Research in Ageing and ICT Development (BRAID) WORKSHOP in Pordenone , Italy
7 April 2011 - 8 April 2011
Austria
The two day workshop will focus on discussing the BRAID Vision and Action plans for a comprehensive RT&D Roadmap on ICT for Ageing.
This is the second of a series of five workshops being held in a number of locations across Europe. The Friuli region of Italy is prominent in the field of assistive technologies for older people. The workshop is therefore an opportunity to gather both local and wider European stakeholder representatives collectively, and provide them with the possibility to voice their opinion and offer feedback on the work being carried out by the BRAID project. Engagement with stakeholders will involve interactive sessions, where stakeholders work side by side BRAID Partners and BRAID Experts.
Invited experts will also be speaking on topics related to their areas of expertise in order to generate discussion and collaboration among stakeholders. This will provide a backdrop for the interactive activities, and a more detailed and extensive context to the work being carried out by the BRAID project. Obtaining valuable input from people with knowledge and significant interest in the field of ICT for Ageing will ensure BRAID effectively responds to and supports the well‐being and socio‐economic integration of increasing numbers of senior citizens in Europe.
