Active and Assisted Living Programme (AAL) refers to the use of new technologies (ICT) to create supportive and inclusive environment which enables older people and persons with disabilities to live independently and stay active longer in society. The European Commission is supporting AAL activities through the Active and Assisted Living programme (AAL JP). The reinforcement of the AAL JP is a major element of the wider policy action on ICT for Ageing Well, including the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing.
