23. 06 February, 2013 23 Focus of Call 6 “ICT-based Solutions for Supporting Occupation in Life of Older Adults„ Call 6 aims at the development of ICT-based solutions which enable older adults to continue managing their occupation – at work in an office, a factory or any working environment; in a first or subsequent career, in paid or voluntary occupation including local social activities – while preserving health and motivation to remain active.

24. 06 February, 2013 24 Definition of “Occupation“ Occupation in the context of this Call 6 is defined as paid and unpaid activity that results in benefit for the community, society and economy. The AAL Joint Programme is looking for ICT solutions to promote, enhance and sustain: paid activity (including but not exclusive to professional, entrepreneurial/small business and self-employment) unpaid activity (e.g. volunteering, knowledge sharing, counselling).

25. 06 February, 2013 25 Call 6 Proposals Older adults have a positive self-image and bright expectations for their future. Some would like to continue working, yet with greater room for leisure time or care activities, others intend to increase their voluntary engagement, and still others wish to change their field of activity and take up a completely new profession or career. Yet, in many cases, the active older adult is still confronted with a “deficit model of age” that assumes that occupational efficiency and general learning ability decline with age and implies that older people are less innovative, less productive and less able to work under pressure than their younger colleagues.

26. 06 February, 2013 26 Call 6 Proposals Empirical evidence suggests that the biggest challenges for older workers are indeed physical strain, mental stress and smaller age-related limitations. This is accompanied by increased skills and competence based on work experience and changing values and attitudes towards work and career. Developments in technical and organisational means to retain the knowledge, expertise and abilities of older workers in the workforce – on a paid or voluntary basis - will help to lessen any potentially detrimental effects of demographic ageing on economic development.

27. 06 February, 2013 27 Application Oriented R&D Projects must target market need and demand The AAL Joint Programme aims at innovative and ICT-based solutions delivered through applied research and development activities, which are financially sustainable and underpinned by a credible business case at proposal submission stage.

28. 06 February, 2013 28 Application Areas (1 of 2) The application areas can be, but are not limited to: Adapting the way of working by thinking about new concepts for flexible systems in a dynamic labour market to keep seniors motivated and active in work or other meaningful activities Developing, adapting and/or re-designing the place of occupation to age-specific conditions to sustain occupational health, while coping with the specific environmental conditions Coping strategies or processes (e.g. stress or time management) and technologies (e.g. for handling heavy or small things) that can help older adults adapt physically and cognitively with their tasks (e. g. at work, in community activities or voluntary organisations) maintain their quality of life and envisage the work-life balance

29. 06 February, 2013 29 Application Areas (2 of 2) Improving occupational lifestyle preserving health (e.g. through personal risk assessment) and supporting behavioural changes (e.g. through smart advisory tools) Training devices according to physical capacities and usability demands, in/outdoors Developing means for learning and training of older workforce Addressing intergenerational knowledge transfer to use skills and competencies based on experience

30. 06 February, 2013 30 Impact (1 of 2) Increasing independence of older adults to manage their occupational activities. Reduce entry barrier between European countries and produce standard solutions easy to adapt by any member state. Strengthening the industrial base in Europe, through developing emerging products, services and systems which meet the needs and wishes of end-users and have a high potential for a viable business case.

31. 06 February, 2013 31 Impact (2 of 2) Facilitating new European cooperation, including end-users and other stakeholders in the value chain. Contributing to the aim of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (EIP AHA), which wants to increase by 2 the average number of healthy life years in the EU by 2020.

32. 06 February, 2013 32 INCLUDED/EXCLUDED SOLUTIONS Aim of the Call: Optimisation and creation of synergies in the interaction between human and technical systems Excluded: Rationalization of working staff Full automation

33. 33 Call Closure Date: 30 April 2013, 17.00 CET One proposal / consortium Central submission system – do not wait until the last minute!!!! English as working language Results are expected October 2013
