The increase in human longevity and the ageing of the population constitute a major challenge
for our societies. One of the key issues concerns the care of elderly people who are facing aloss of autonomy. In this field, if the contribution of technologies (such as robotics, artificialintelligence, information and communication technologies) is recognized as an answer, it isalso marked by certain limits, partly revealed by the Covid-19 crisis. Our hypothesis is that thisis a structural problem linked to the partial disconnection between social needs andtechnological responses, in connection with the dominant paradigm of innovation. The
objective of the project is to develop an alternative concept of care-driven innovation. Througha multidisciplinary Franco-Japanese collaboration, we analyze policies and practices thatmake well-being the ultimate criterion for innovation.
After the first Annual Forum in December 2021, during which we discussed the content of thework packages of the project, we will, this year, focus on two major topics: 1) the use of robotics
and “gerontechnologies” for eldercare; 2) the analysis of heterogenous needs and care in thecontext of promotion of autonomy. We will also further discuss the research agenda ofINNOVCARE, in welcoming INNOVCARE members and other eminent specialists of thesequestions.
