What actions can the Cost219ter community take to alleviate the obstacles that prevent the development of practical applications?

In response to the TQ, the xx participants came up with xx mechanisms, which were categorized in 10 clusters. Following the voting process, xx ideas received one or more votes and were structured to create the influence MAP shown below.


MAP for CARDIAC III.
Influence tree on the mechanisms that would ensure successful technology transfer in accessible and assistive ICT products and services.


According to the participants of this workshop, the characteristics appear to be the most influential were:

  • Mechanism #1, Big delay in decision making from the governmental side

The participants had time to discuss and reflect on the influence map and in general agreed that the arrows in the map made sense to them. In sum, the participants reported their satisfaction that their voices have been heard and documented and communicated their expectations for follow-up activities to address the diagnosis of their needs.

The workshop was facilitated by Elena Aristodemou (CNTI), Aleco Christakis and Georgina Siitta Achilleos (CNTI).
