Brief description of Project Purpose and the principal activities
The main goal of this project is to extend the APEC funded project (TEL 01/2011A) that has created an effective platform for knowledge exchange on innovation for assistive ICT applications for elderly and disabled people. The project has been developed in compliance with the declaration of the TELMIN8, and the resolutions for bridging digital divide adopted at the previous APEC meetings. 5
The project has included evaluation of experiences in implementation and manpower training of ICT applications for people with special needs in participating Economies. The findings and recommendations for APEC funded project as the 1st stage were published in the economy report and capacity building model report respectively.
