The AFECO project aims to promote older adults’ skills and competences that allow them to analyse and use affordable age-friendly and eco-friendly principles in their physical environment (at home or in the neighbourhood).

In Hands-on SHAFE you will find modules for SMART (mobile and smart home), HEALTHY (prevention and dealing with diseases), and BUILT (physical indoor and outdoor environments).
Educational game BIG “Building Inclusive environments for all Generations” delivers SHAFE learning in an online game. The player can meet and solve the challenges of characters during the play, such as inaccessible housing for a wheelchair, loading goods in a car while taking care of a child, or visiting a restaurant with impaired sight. The project will also develop a workshop methodology to use the game in joint training settings.
The “Bridge the Gap!” project focuses on social and digital participation of older people. It provides training methodologies to train older people to create and improve their own living environments with the support of digital tools.
The DESIRE project provides professionals in the building industry, as well as furniture and home furnishings sector, with the tools and skills to apply Design4All methods. This is an integral part of the design process.
