Dr. Michael Burnard, InnoRenew CoE deputy director, in collaboration with researchers from the Pharaon project, published a scientific article, “Involving Older Adults During COVID-19 Restrictions in Developing an Ecosystem Supporting Active Aging: Overview of Alternative Elicitation Methods and Common Requirements From Five European Countries”, in Human-Media Interaction.

“Information and communication technology solutions have the potential to support active and healthy aging and improve monitoring and treatment outcomes,” the authors wrote in the article.

“Due to the COVID-19 situation, alternative approaches to commonly used face-to-face methods must often be used, and one aim of the current article is to share a unique experience from the Pharaon project, where due to the COVID-19 outbreak, alternative elicitation methods were used,” they added.
