In 2011, 44 AAL (Ambient Assisted Living) projects with the involvement 
of ca. 200 organizations signed theLecce Declaration 
<http://publica.fraunhofer.de/documents/N-225288.html>, which caused the 
strategic and the operational plans of theEIP-AHA 
<https://webgate.ec.europa.eu/eipaha/>(European Innovation Partnership 
on Active and Healthy Living) to include the C2 action group on 
interoperable independent living solutions. After more than two and a 
half years, this event aims at bringing the demand and supply side 
together in order to evaluate the achievements so far and collect 
recommendations for the way forward. The workshop will include three 
plenary sessions and two parallel tracks, one specific to the demand 
side and the other to the supply side:

  * The demand side will meet in two sessions that are the continuation
    of the "mutual learning" workshops of theENGAGED
    <http://www.aer.eu/en/knowledge-centre/regional-expertise/projects/engaged.html>project,
    this time to look at the topic of interoperability. Subsequently,
    they will have a look at theReAAL
    <http://www.cip-reaal.eu/about/project-description/>experience in a
    third session, as this project has specifically been designed for
    the EIP-AHA to assess the value of interoperable independent living
    solutions.
  * The supply side will go through the results of anAAL JP
    <http://www.aal-europe.eu/>'s support action that investigates the
    role of integration profiles in achieving interoperability (in
    parallel to the "mutual learning" sessions of  the demand side).
    Finally in parallel to the demand side's session on ReAAL, the
    suppliers will have a look at the results of the EC investments on
    theuniversAAL <http://universaal.org/index.php/en/>open platform for
    AAL.

In particular, the final plenary session will try to find out how the 
participants evaluate the covered part of the journey and which 
recommendations they make for the next steps towards managing AAL 
complexity.
