EIP on AHA launches call for commitments

Organisations are invited to submit commitments and become a partner of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (EIP on AHA) with the launch of its new portal and call for commitments.

The call for commitments welcomes all bodies involved in the development, promotion or deployment of innovative solutions for active and healthy ageing to come forward with projects and initiatives that they will implement in the coming three years.

The commitments are organised within action groups and must be in line with the overall priorities of the EIP on AHA: to enable EU citizens to lead healthy, active and independent lives while ageing; to improve the sustainability and efficiency of social and healthcare systems; and to boost the competitiveness of the markets for innovative products and services to create new opportunities for businesses.

If successful, applicants will become partners in the largest European community of stakeholders engaged in the development and deployment of innovation for Europe’s ageing society, and will join a host of leading industrial players, research institutes, innovators, start-ups, SMEs, end user organisations, and regional and national authorities.

Complete an online form to submit your commitment, or see the call for commitments’ FAQs for more information. The call closes on 15 April.

Alongside the call, the EIP on AHA has also launched a new portal for all those involved in active and healthy ageing throughout Europe to facilitate communication and information sharing. Visit the portal to promote news and events, meet and exchange ideas with peers, or look for potential partners on innovative projects.
