Ville de Laval has granted $100,000 to the Luci technology platform to promote healthy lifestyle habits among adults and seniors in Laval. Support for this concrete action will help Laval adapt to the aging of its population and modulate its socio-economic challenges.
Setting the context
In Laval, like everywhere in Quebec, the growing aging population has various socio-economic impacts, particularly in the healthcare, services, housing and accommodation sectors.
The Silver Economy branch of the TEMMRA model proposes a thread of reflections and actions inherent to our resilience in the face of this new paradigm.
Initial project
The aging of Laval's population is currently the subject of an in-depth study. In order to identify the specific issues of the territory, a comparative study with other regions here and elsewhere is underway. The links created allow us to highlight proven practices, tested in different socio-economic contexts.
Objective
The objective of this project is to develop a proof of concept integrating technologies in the living environment. The concept will be developed with actors from the health and academic communities, as well as other partners.
