WP definition

Dear all,

Regarding the 4 WP that we will finally have in the project and following what Francois and Ase wrote before, they can be the following ones:

WP1-Management and coordination

Project managment as a whole in order to reach the objectives, partners coordination, etc.

WP2-Communication and dissemination

Dissemination of the results among indentify and relevant stakeholders outside the project in order to promote  and to increase the awareness

Possible outputs:

- Brochures

- Web

- Dissemination and Communication plan

As Francois wrote: by using the Website, leaflets, brochures, news, symposium

WP3-Exchange of experiences and analysis of good practices

Shoul be devoted to analyse regional data, to exchange the info and good parctices among regions, and to draw conclusions and recommendations

Including what  Ase mentioned: what has been done already ; by whom, methods used and results achieved with regard to all different aspects of eating among elderly.

Possible outputs:

-Good practice guidelines

WP4- Implementation

How this conclusions and recommendations can reach the market and be useful for creating new business opportunities, innovative processes, etc.

According to what Ase also mentioned:  promote local economical development within our different regions.

Possible outputs:

-Feasibility studies

-Strategy plans

Once we have the role of each partner clear, we can start writing the content of all these WP.

Waht do you think?

Best regards

paula

Agreing with Ase

Thank You Åse for your contribution

I do agree that there are many differents projects and programs being developed in each region without any local coordination.
What you are describing is the need to begin with state of art in our local region to make this mandatory inventory.
Then we should be able to benchmark our 6 regions and exchange about all the components of food (health, packagning,  flavour, texture,.....

So, as you see in 2010/07/02 note, this is the subject of WP3, imposed by CREATOR comitee

• WP3 Exchanging of experience / good practices

beginning with state of art and benchmarking and working on common studies

Another important carateristic of CREATOR project is to ask for visible impact on economy and companies added value => that should be the second large part of our project, as aked by your local coordinators:

"to show how this might and can promote local economical development within our different regions"

I think there are many differences in foood habits and consumption needs of our seniors between our various  regions and this difference should be an excellent basis for exchanging and contributing to regional policies enhancements.

Dear CREATOR friends,

I'm sorry for our late response here on the web log but we´re in the middle of our summer vacations. Please read and consider our idea for the joint project. As you will see, and some of you might recall, we have a somewhat new suggestion for our part of the project.

After our initial meeting and brainstorming in Metz we took our ideas from that meeting with us back to Sweden and discussed with our local partners. After a first, brief overview of the subject (food for elderly) we got aware of that there is a large amount of different local projects performed in Sweden but often/usually without coordination between projects, both with regard to methods used and achieved results. Dissemination of the results are often non-existent and rarely affects the normal routines within elder care. We don’t know the situation in other countries but believe the situation might be the same in your regions.

We therefore think that there is a need for a survey to elucidate what has been done already; by whom, methods used and results achieved with regard to all different aspects of eating among elderly. This will enable us to clearly see possibilities to improve nutritional status and health of elderly through increased accessibility and palatability of foods and meals through manipulation of flavour and texture of food, packaging (this is what we were discussing in Metz) and the social environment during meals and also to see where knowledge is lacking.

For efficient use of resources it is necessary to clarify what is already done and what remains to be studied. This may create job opportunities within the food and packaging industries specializing in food and food delivery to the elderly population, with regard to technologies within social media, etc. Improvement in the area will also have an enormous positive health impact on the aging European population.

We have discussed this idea with our local coordinators (Länsstyrelsen Västerbotten)  and they think it is an good idea, in line with the CREATOR idea of transferring of knowledge between our regions. But they also pinpointed that it is important for us to show how this might and can promote local economical development within our different regions.

Feel free to comment on our idea!

Meeting with CREATOR Lorraine regional partner in Metz - July 2nd 2010

Dear partners

We had a meeting with CREATOR Lorraine's team this morning.It seems that other french participants didn't advance a lot in their consortium building comparing to our...

Dominique Lorette gave us ( Florence Brehelin et François Issler) interesting advice about the right way to deal with the application form.

CREATOR decided that there will only be 4 WP in a project:

• WP1 = Project management

• WP2 = Communication and spray (dissemination)

Website, leaflets, brochures, news, symposium

• WP3 Exchanging of experience / good practices

beginning with state of art and benchmarking
working on common studies, seminaries, tests

• WP4: to be defined ==> should be our work to develop and implement tools and methodologies, then testing

It seems that this structuration - which is mandatory - is coherent with those proposed by Paula and the worh been done in Lorraine on july 1st

Workshop AGRIA - INNO8 July 1st 2010

Florence , Jean-Michel and François had a meeting about the project's canevas.

In order to symplify the framework, we are proposing to have 4 WP

WP0 = Project management

WP1 = State of art on food and agro agricultural actors in each region

WP2 = To study

•  products and services ( what the elderlys are waiting for)
•  markets
•  targets

WP3 = Diseemination, transfer and communication (this is almost Paula's  "knowledge management" workpackage

If you agree with this project structure, we could begin to work on tasks in each workpackage, time and ressources needed by each of us and thus budget
