This WP will develop innovative strategies to promote quality of life in ageing. It will investigate and support psychosocial components that are highly relevant to healthy ageing but have sometimes been outlooked by the scientific literature. Studies and interventions will focus on the role of personal engagement in the self-management of older adults and their families and communities, also supported by original technological solutions, including mobile interventions and robotic assistance. Moreover, the mindful promotion of ageing stereotypes is expected to lead to improved psychological and physical outcomes.
