Project Summary

​In Europe, 30 to 50% of elderly people suffer from malnutrition, which increases the risk of morbidity and mortality, and decreases considerably their ​physical and psychological activities. Several actions have been undertaken at EU level to promote well eating among seniors, however, the educational programs sometimes use methods that are not extremely motivating for the older users.

FA4AG aims at promoting good nutrition habits among seniors by proposing innovative game solutions to explain nutrition. The gamification dimension will at once boost seniors’ motivation to learn more about well eating and promote ICT use among older people.
A nutrition guide will be available for all seniors in order to learn more about good nutrition habits. The learning dimension will be strengthened by the Nutrition Games Platform that will host the nutrition games and will be specifically tailored on seniors’ needs in terms of usability and acceptability.
These 2 tools are the main results of the project, which the consortium will co-design thanks to the involvement of the seniors from the very beginning of the project and will test and validate with them.
