These gatherings served as arenas for partners to review progress, strategize upcoming steps, and ensure the excellence of outcomes. Through collective deliberations and shared insights, the Consortium harmonized its endeavors toward meeting project milestones.

These deliverables aimed to enhance caregivers’ abilities to provide effective support to ageing adults with disabilities, especially through the HUB in which being trained and find all the resources.
A notable contribution of the project was the involvement of stakeholders and beneficiaries during the pilot test in each country, to evaluate what the Consortium produces.

In conclusion, the Inclu-ageing project stands as a testament to the power of collaboration and innovation in addressing the needs of ageing adults with disabilities.
