In June, the ACE Advisory Board convened for the first time, bringing together older adults from France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, and Sweden. This board is integral to the mission of enhancing homecare services in the North Sea region, ensuring that the project's efforts align closely with the needs of its primary target group.
The establishment of the Advisory Board is crucial for the ACE project to remain relevant and responsive to the needs of older adults. Its main purpose is to keep the project's progress grounded in real-world experiences and to address the genuine concerns of its target group. Acting as a continuous feedback loop, the board evaluates the relevance and quality of all project activities and deliverables.
The Advisory Board's responsibilities include guiding project activities, maintaining the relevance and quality of deliverables, and providing essential feedback to ensure that all outputs are practical and beneficial. By sharing their unique perspectives and experiences, board members help steer the project towards impactful results.
Participation in the Advisory Board also offers a meaningful opportunity for its members. They are invited to ACE events and have the chance to influence the future of homecare. Their contributions provide crucial real-world insights, ensuring that the project's solutions are effective and relevant.
The first meeting marked a successful start to this collaborative effort, setting the stage for significant advancements in ACE. The continued engagement and contributions from Advisory Board members are expected to drive positive changes in the homecare landscape of the North Sea region.
