St@ndByMe
The St@ndByMe project aims to fill the gap in training, awareness, and capacity building among practitioners working with older persons, within the human rights framework for digital inclusion. The central aspect of the project is the empowerment of elder persons to become active actors within modernized and digitized societies, bolstering in practice the European values for quality, equity, inclusion and success in adult learning, as well as the modernization of human resources in long-term care.
