TRADITIONAL CONSORTIA AND PROJECTS

“Collaborative projects” (carried out by consortia composed of at least 3 organisations from 3 different countries including an end user organisation and a business partner) will remain the main funding tool for this call. Next to the “Collaborative projects”, a new and agiler project tool will be introduced: The Small Collaborative project.

SMALL COLLABORATIVE PROJECTS

Small collaborative projects have a duration of 6 months, a maximum co-funding budget of €300.000 and leaner application and reporting procedures. The main objective of the small collaborative projects is the exploration of new ideas, concepts and approaches for ICT-based solutions for older adults. They should reach out to new stakeholders for inclusion in (future) development of AAL solutions, build strong collaborations with end-user organisations, support community building with new customers and create shared agendas.
