FAITh is an ERASMUS+ KA3 project aiming to prevent and combat the digital marginalization of people 55+ years by enhancing their capacities and building their confidence and trust to use internet and ICT technologies to transact online, as a way to keep them in a state of inclusion and improve their wellbeing. In doing so, the FAITh partnership will deliver an innovative Peer-to-Peer mentoring programme that builds on the principles of motivation and peer support, while engaging the family and care environment and building partnerships with the local community service network and the local market.
The two-year project, funded by the ERASMUS+ Programme of the European Union, will run from January 2021 to January 2023 with the cooperation of 7 partner organisations from Belgium, Cyprus, Germany, Greece, Italy, and Portugal.
FAITh’s main objectives are: – To build the digital skills of people 55+ to undertake a range of online (internet) transactions, while increasing their feeling of trust and safety online.
– To motivate seniors of 55+ years old to use internet and perform online transactions by enlisting the support of ICT competent peers as positive Role Models and training them to act as Digital Mentors.
– To raise the awareness of older people’s family members and informal caregivers about their role in integrating digital technologies in the elderly’s everyday life, while educating them on the safe use of online processing systems.
– To raise the awareness and build the capacity of professionals from the local community and market about the digital inclusion needs of older people and effective ways to address them through age-friendly products and services.
– To raise the awareness to seniors of 55+ years old about the possibilities and convenience of doing transactions online, while informing policy at local, national and EU level about the need to take measures to keep older generations digitally literate.
