SUMMARY:Engaging older adults in research: The OA-Involve experience
DESCRIPTION:The OA-INVOLVE project documents best practices of involving older adults in technology research and development with the aim to establish guidelines for older adult engagement. The active involvement of older adults in the research and development of technologies for older adults has scientific\, commercial\, and broader societal benefits.  However\, due to barriers such as lengthy ethics approvals at universities\, lack of researcher training in participatory methods\, and restrictive funding structures\, older adults are often not engaged in the development of technologies from the beginning. In this presentation\, we explore these barriers and how institutional policies can be changed to better support researchers in meaningfully engaging older adults throughout the research process.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Dr. Amanda Jenkins\, Research Coordinator for OA-INVOLVE\, AGE-WELL\, Dalhousie University\nRegister Here: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_yA7yK808S_eAOpGx9eVYcg

SUMMARY:Policy challenges and approaches to the ethical design\, development\, and procurement of Age-Tech
DESCRIPTION:Older adults (65+)\, who are already at risk of social isolation and loneliness\, are at increasing risks of also being “digitally isolated”. The fast-changing landscape of services being transitioned to a primarily digital format (especially services essential to this demographic\, from health\, to financial\, and to personal/social connectivity) may in fact lead to older adults’ digital marginalization. In our AGE-WELL research\, we have been investigating inclusive design methods such as the participatory design of interactive applications. However\, in our investigation of industry practices and policies\, we have also uncovered barriers to the adoption of such methods by developers and designers. We reflect here on the value of such approaches and the limitations of relying exclusively on market forces to address barriers to the use of these design methods. We then describe our emerging research on the policy and procurement changes that may bring meaningful and structurally sustainable changes to the inclusive and ethical development of age-tech. \n\nSpeaker: Dr. Cosmin Munteanu\, Director of Technologies for Ageing Gracefully lab (TAGlab) at the University of Toronto Mississauga. With contributions from Simon Cook and Humaira Tasnim.\nRegister here: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_B6xNKk4LRB-C8NB0wjRGHw

SUMMARY:When employees are diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment or early onset dementia at work: Getting ahead of the curve
DESCRIPTION:As the workforce ages\, there will be an exponential rise in the number of workers who develop mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or early onset dementia (EOD) while on the job. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities emphasizes that reasonable accommodation must be provided to individuals with disabilities such as MCI|EOD\, so that they may be able to enjoy equal opportunity in the workplace. Dr. McMurray will provide a high-level summary of the Cog@Work team’s research into the science behind employers’ response to this “rising tide”\, and the Canadian policy environment which guides them. \n\nSpeaker: Dr. Josephine McMurray\, Associate Professor\, Wilfrid Laurier University\nRegister here: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_v3Lzq3gAR4aATHYcsibngQ

SUMMARY:APPTA Policy Stakeholder Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The AGE-WELL National Innovation Hub Advancing Policies and Practices in Technology and Aging (APPTA) supports governments in generating opportunities to address the policy and practice challenges of an aging population. A joint initiative of AGE-WELL and the New Brunswick Health Research Foundation\, APPTA aims to bridge the gap between research and implementation\, create opportunities for knowledge exchange\, and foster an environment of innovation and collaboration in aging across Canada. \nWe believe knowledge sharing is crucial to breaking the mould and improving the quality of life of older adults across Canada. At APPTA\, we take a connectivity approach to complex challenges\, bringing people together from east to west\, north to south\, to share their best ideas and work collectively on policy solutions that will benefit Canadian seniors. As such\, each year APPTA hosts two Policy Stakeholder Meetings with the objective of bringing policy and decision-makers from across the country together around identified policy priorities\, and offer a meaningful opportunity for connection and exchange. \nThis year\, our Policy Stakeholder Meeting will take place on October 22nd\, 2019 in Moncton\, NB\, and will be followed by the AGE-WELL Annual Conference. The topic for our meeting will be focused on the following policy priority: what are the options that governments can employ to provide enhanced supports for caregivers?

SUMMARY:APPTA Policy Innovation Lab
DESCRIPTION:Modeled off of the social innovation lab approach\, APPTA’s Policy Innovation Lab will seek to disrupt our “business as usual” problem-solving methods by exploring new processes for developing public policy solutions that enhance the lives of older adults. The objective of the Policy Innovation Lab is to address a complex challenge through a co-creation approach that is supported by the expertise of diverse groups who have a stake in the issue. \nThe challenge question for our Policy Innovation Lab participants is\, “how can increased investment in home support be leveraged to enhance older adults’ ability to age well in their communities?”

SUMMARY:2019 National Conference on Frailty: Innovation and Collaboration for Impact
DESCRIPTION:Frailty matters. 1.2 million Canadians 65-plus live with frailty as do 2.5 million Canadians who are their caregivers and hundreds of thousands more in the healthcare workforce. Canadians 65-plus account for nearly half of Canada’s healthcare spending (almost $100 billion)\, but only 15% of the population. \nLISTEN to expert speakers and top innovators as they discuss their innovative work to improve care for older adults living with frailty and/or support their caregivers. \nCFN is Canada’s only national network dedicated to older Canadians living with frailty and all responsible for their well-being. The Network has funded and catalyzed new research\, knowledge\, practice\, education and training across the full continuum of care. This conference is a unique opportunity to examine frailty from many aspects/perspectives at a single event.
