AER is happy to share within our network a side event organised by our friends of Age Platform Europe together with other partners in the context of the European Week of Regions and Cities 2016. The side event titled “Smart cities and communities for all: How to become smart and age-friendly” will take place on 10th October and is hosted by the Fundación Galicia Europa in Brussels.

The debate will offer room for discussion on inclusive smart cities and communities and shed light on concrete examples from cities and regions. It will also make the link with the Urban Agenda for the EU, the EIP on Active and Healthy Ageing, the EIP on Smart Cities and Communities, the emerging European Silver Economy Strategy, as well as the European Covenant on Demographic Change.

More information for this interesting initiative are available here.

We encourage our member regions and partners to join it!

Registration is open here.
