In a quest to bridge the digital gap for seniors, the project 'TechElder Care' aims to provide accessible and user-friendly tech solutions for older adults. The project, steered by Jane Stevens and Mike Richards, focuses on training seniors about the latest technological tools, which ensures they are not left behind in this digital era. The initiative includes workshops for seniors to familiarize themselves with smartphones, tablets, computers, as well as basic software and applications.
The project also promotes accessible design in technology, advocating for advanced yet simple devices that cater to the specific requirements of seniors. This part is done in collaboration with top global tech firms who are motivated to enhance the digital experience of the elderly. This innovative, holistic approach aims to empower seniors, enhancing their quality of life and promoting their independence.
