Project description
Virtual coaching sustains healthy ageing
As the world's population is growing older, our societies need to find ways to support older people’s capabilities to age well. The EU-funded e-VITA project is a joint collaboration funded by the EU and the Japanese Ministry MIC. 22 European and Japanese partners will develop a sociotechnical coaching system for community-dwelling older adults. Based on the users’ needs and abilities, the virtual coach will provide smart support for ageing well at home by promoting physical activity, cognitive training, and social interaction with other persons in the community around them. The expected impacts are to promote active and healthy ageing, contribute to independent living, and reduce risks of social exclusion of older adults in Europe and Japan.
