Abstract
New integrated and technology-supported services are needed to face the challenges of rapidly ageing societies. Collaborative networks provide a promising framework for the development of such services, which require the involvement of multiple stakeholders. In this direction, a roadmapping initiative is addressing the implementation of a new vision for technological support to ageing. To support this vision, a strategic research plan focused on four life settings - independent living, healthy living, occupation in life, and recreation in life - is introduced. A large number of stakeholders coming from different backgrounds contributed to the design and validation of this roadmap.
