On March 30th, the final project meeting of DALIA, hosted by project partner iHomeLab, took place in the Swiss city of Luzern.
DALIA Field Tests
DALIA involves real end users and care organisations in the development and attaches great importance to end user involvement. Therefore, all end users (elderly adults, formal carers, informal carers) are involved during the whole project in a multi-stage approach. The tests are carried out at the involved care organisations which try to invite several end users. According to the strategy developed, tests are conducted in Switzerland (terzStiftung with iHomeLab), Austria (Volkshilfe Steiermark with Exthex), Luxembourg (Stëftung Hëllef Doheem) and the Netherlands (`t Dijkhuis with Virtask).
