Digital Training

Welcome to the Digital Training!

This training was developed within and is based on our experiences and results of the Bridge the Gap! project (Erasmus+ project 2020-2022). We believe that older people can benefit most if they themselves actively change their environment according to their needs and preferences. Thus, the aim of our project Bridge the Gap! was to train and empower older people to implement their ideas for an age-friendly environment with the support of digital tools.
