Programme 2014 - 2020 INTERREG VB Baltic Sea

Date of latest update: 2024-03-30

Description

Description (EN):

The progressing age of societies in the Baltic Sea region poses a societal and economic challenge to adjust market offers to the needs of the elderly. BaltSe@nioR 2.0 brings together municipalities, universities, businesses and NGOs to create new business models as well as demo spaces in public locations furnished with smart furniture. Through this, the project aims to trigger public institutions and manufacturing companies in the region in starting a transformation of museums, theatres, city halls, restaurants and other public spaces into friendlier places for seniors.

Achievements (EN):

Cross-national needs’ assessment: The partners conducted a cross-national survey on the needs of seniors and public institutions in all Baltic Sea region countries. 562 public institutions and 2088 seniors from the whole region took part. Senior-friendly smart furniture prototypes: To demonstrate the possibilities of implementing ICT solutions into furniture and focus the attention of manufacturers on a senior-friendly design, the project partners developed prototypes of smart furniture addressing seniors’ needs, e.g. three designs of smart tablecloths, a table facilitating VR/AR usage, a medical smart bed, a smart cushion, automated robotic support for seniors to stand up. In addition, 20 concepts for new senior-friendly products were created, including a swinging bench for outdoor use, a chest for multigenerational planting, and a rotating board game cube. Senior-friendly model public spaces: The project partners created four permanent and one pop-up senior-friendly model public spaces in five BSR countries (Poland, Estonia, Lithuania, Sweden, and Finland) using the prototype products and concepts developed during the project. The project rearranged various spaces: outdoor spaces and indoor spaces being a relaxation zone, a co-working zone, an educational zone, assisted ambient living facility, medical training and simulation rooms, physiotherapy, and social rooms to demonstrate how public spaces can be made more senior-friendly. These model spaces showcase a change that can be implemented in the Baltic Sea region and act as good practice examples of how to create a public space that everyone can easily enter and use, including seniors or people with disabilities. https://interreg-baltic.eu/project/baltsenior-2-0/
