Welcome to the AGE-WELL WP4 Project!

A globally aging population demands innovative approaches to ensure that people across societies can live and age well. In particular, there is a need to move from health and social agendas that emphasize dependency as we age, to ones that promote healthy aging and independence.

Our research focuses on developmental strengths and risks as they relate to well-being and successful aging. We use a variety of quantitative and qualitative research methods including quasi-experimental interventions, surveys, focus groups, interviews and observation.  Our central goal is to contribute to understanding how information technology can best support healthy aging for older adults.
