The purpose of INNOVATEDIGNITY-ITN funded by the European Commission (2019-2023) is to develop a shared research and training agenda in order to educate the next generation of interdisciplinary health care researchers and care leaders across Europe. The project is a response to the Europe wide need to provide sustainable and dignified care for the elderly at home and in residential, municipal and hospital settings.

The network will look in detail at how older people currently experience care, how they can be supported to live well and how technology, gender, workforce pressures and institutional factors can impact on experiences of dignity and well-being. INNOVATEDIGNITY-ITN will research new ways of engaging with older people to shape digital developments. This will include examining new kinds of care delivery, long term residential care and rapid transitions from acute hospital care to home, gender imbalances and workforce sustainability. The aim is to create new forms of care activities, which include participatory models and co-design with older people, in response to the growing lack of sustainability within elderly care and evidence of current care failings.

The University of Borås is currently looking for two Marie Sklodowska-Curie (MSCA) PhD students in caring science.
