Накратко на български

Животът на възрастните хора в градовете се анализира чрез фактори като човешките права, сградите и технологиите. Това помага за създаването на по-включваща градска среда и подкрепя политиките за застаряващото население в Европа.

Grey and green in Europe: elderly living in urban areas

Starting from the challenge of the ageing population in Europe, GRAGE consortium has identified ideas and solutions to promote an active, harmonious and inclusive citizenship for elderly people living in urban context. Researchers have worked to understanding cultural, psychological and societal factors that influence elderly attitudes, values and behaviors within the cities. Innovative expertise from different scientific backgrounds (including legal, economic, humanities and engineering), belonging to several countries (from EU and Ukraine) were combined. Key areas of study included Human rights in age friendly cities (WP2), Buildings (WP3), Resource efficiency (WP4), Information and language technology (WP5), Europe as global actor (WP6) in ageing society industries. GRAGE has pursued the following specific objectives: 1.Excellence in research, to enhance scientific knowledge and research/trasversal skills of participants 2.Impact, to build lasting knowledge and cooperation networks, also in support of SMEs and EU policy-makers.

Цел на проекта

The EU has to face many challenges in achieving a more balanced regional development and sustainable economic recovery. Many of those challenges have to do with the ageing population trend, urbanization and environment under distress. More liveable and efficient communities is a target to be reached in Europe, where the “silver hair” trends can become a challenging opportunity, from a social, economic and cultural perspective. Despite those challenges are strongly interlinked, solutions provided in urban contexts not often pay due attention to the social process underlying urban trends and to the needs and behaviour of elderly citizens. GRAGE intends to contribute to fill this gap, developing winning ideas to promote an active, harmonious and inclusive citizenship for elderly people living in urban contexts. The consortium gathers ground-breaking expertise from different scientific background (legal, economic, humanities, engineering), from academic and non academic institutions, belonging to several countries (from EU and Ukraine). Using a mix of methodologies, the research and innovation programme of the project will evolve around the idea of citizenship as a collector of interest, healthy environment and suitable urban solutions for an aging society. Main themes will be: green buildings, food and urban agriculture, information and language technology. Researcher will analyze their role in transforming cities in environments that support green and healthy lifestyles for elderly people. GRAGE intents to boost dialogue through Europe, both strengthening the academic and non-academic collaboration and a practical understanding of elderly living across Europe. Such a cooperation can have a series of returns for Europe, ranging from a more effective solution to strategic challenges (sustainable cities and demographic change) to new business opportunities for European firms, offering solutions and products for smart/inclusive/ageing societies at global level.
