[Isl] FW: 2022 (eng)aging! international conference: CALL FOR PROPOSALS

[Neil Charness]

Hi Folks:

I was a keynote speaker (virtually) in the conference below a year ago and it provided useful insights about European efforts in the general area of aging and technology.  If you have interest in organizing a panel, workshop, working breakfast, etc., let Callie know and we will organize a meeting to discuss how to apply to the conference.  Best, Neil

Dear Neil,



I hope this email finds you well.

As you participated in our 2021 conference and were interested in contributing to (eng)aging! project, we would be honored to discuss and potentially implement a joint session with Institute for Successful Longevity during the upcoming "Active Ageing through Innovation: Learning from the COVID-19 Pandemic" conference, which will take place on June 8-9, 2022 in Prague.



The COVID-19 pandemic has affected various aspects of individual and societal life and older people have been among those most affected. Overcoming the COVID-19 crisis and post-crisis uncertainties will require more decisive actions on ageing. This year's conference will be dedicated to discussing innovative solutions to overcome these uncertainties as well as to presenting technological products and innovations with a potential to improve living in old age. For more detailed description of the conference theme, please visit www.engagingprague.com<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/www.engagingprague.com__;!!PhOWcWs!mUEccySB4NiMwbRCKVrKvOA5k1B4rEMbfh1MKbfrIxPQHSw_1_f_GP7N3sH63FxciK4$>. The conference is associated with Technology Fair, where technological products and innovations focused on older persons and their specific needs will be presented.

The conference will principally focus on the following thematic areas:

  *   Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic;
  *   Ageism and Technology Gap;
  *   Evaluation and Adjustment of International Frameworks for Policy Actions on Ageing.
  *

Besides the above-mentioned topics, we also welcome cooperation proposals concerning other relevant issues on the field of population aging and its impacts.



Please kindly let us know whether your organization would be interested in proposing and co-organizing a 2022 (eng)aging! conference session, be it a panel, a lecture, a working breakfast, a workshop, or any other format that may be relevant and that you believe would enrich the conference discussions.
