In IT
Wed, 22 Aug 2012

The European Commission has issued a call for proposals for challenge 5 of its ICT for Health programme.

Challenge 5 builds on the previous research activities on health, ageing, inclusion, and governance. Nevertheless, it adapts to support new policy developments such as the Digital Agenda for Europe, the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing and Horizon 2020. It adapts also to better support innovation and activities closer to the market like pre-commercial procurement actions and platforms supporting social innovation. The focus will be on development of solutions that empower the individual, in a social context, to improve and manage personal life as a citizen, elderly, patient, consumer, civil servant or worker. For details on each domain and objective, check the work programme 2013 from page 53.

The deadline for submissions is 13 January 2013
