Supporting functioning and wellbeing: focus on families and elderly persons

# data[].attributes.body
This proposal focuses on human functioning and wellbeing in different life stages. The focus is on understanding how functioning and wellbeing are supported by the individual themselves, in their social networks as well as in services. Wellbeing is scrutinized as a broad-ranging concept, including psychological, social, and physical components, whereas functioning reflects a dynamic interaction between a person’s health condition, environment, and personal factors. The proposal includes two strands: functioning and wellbeing a) in diverse families and b) among the elderly.

Real-Time and Mixed Criticality Robotic Collaborative Systems for Digital Solutions and Deep Tech  

# data[].attributes.body
The Politehnica University of Timisoara has one of the few collectives with expertise and publications on Mixed Criticality Real-Time Systems, an area with a huge potential for applications in Cyber-Physical Systems, Robotic Collaborative Systems, and the Internet of Things. Thus, a joint research center between our collective and a collective focusing on the applicability of these solutions could be a win-win situation for all the parties. Regarding the applicability of Real-Time and Mixed Criticality Robotic Collaborative Systems, we mention: autonomous collective robots that can perform tasks in fields like waste collecting, smart farming, or even creative industries.

Keywords: Mixed Criticality, Real-Time Systems, Embedded Systems, Internet of Things, Robotic Systems

This is an applied research project with a focus on digital business solutions.

In the evolving landscape of human-machine collaboration, SMEs' Human Resources (HR) services must adapt, leveraging generative AI tools for automation and personalisation, while navigating challenges.

We aim to develop a readiness scan, action plan, and workshops. These resources, developed in collaboration with key partners (HR service provider & software development company) and with input from Flemish SMEs, aim to guide HR services in making informed decisions about incorporating generative AI. This human-centric, ethically guided approach strives to enhance HR through responsible AI.

The goal is not to develop Generative AI applications but to focus on Generative AI adoption and translation for an audience of SMEs which do not have their own R&D department.

This project has been submitted to an internal research fund at UCLL already. It also strengthens our own "GPT Academy", an existing project through which we've already successfully performed a large number of workshops (in Dutch).

We have made the following idea of a proposal and please contact us if you are interested in the subject.

The Research Centre of Excellence for Inclusive Regional Development studies actions and practices that prevent exclusion. Inclusion is understood as a measure to foster diversity and empower citizens. Being part of something is central for individual and community wellbeing, which contributes directly to regional wellbeing, peace, and safety. The Research Centre of Excellence studies personal health and wellbeing measures as well as community initiatives, social innovations, and services that enhance inclusion. Applied research is conducted in close cooperation with health services, workplaces, employment services, the third sector organizations, the citizens, and business actors such as wellbeing, nature and cultural tourism service providers. At the Centre, the needs and efforts to prevent exclusion are studied from various disciplinary perspectives in relation to the concept of inclusion, with highly relevant input for prosperous regional development.

Keywords: Inclusion, regional development, health, wellbeing, services

Resilient Innovations

We have formed the following idea and we are interested in collaborating with those interested in the subject. Please contact us.

The Research Centre of Excellence for Resilient Innovations studies innovations that build regional resilience. The Research Centre seeks innovations from non-expected grounds by rethinking the traditional forms of entrepreneurship, decision-making, and community participation. The seeds for innovations are understood to grow in unexpected environments by connecting creative minds. The Centre serves as a research-based platform for creating networks and innovation processes that can rise from a variety of sectors and actors. Novel methods such as co-creative design approaches are utilized and tested for innovation creation. The research touches on fields of tourism, bioeconomy, management, digital development, and gaming for gaining a comprehensive understanding of innovation ecosystems. Hence, the innovations can aim for socio-cultural, ecological, and economic value-creation. The ultimate goal is to identify innovations that are resilient in a long run and contribute to sustainable development goals through creating new forms of economy.

Keywords: Resilience, innovation, regional development, collaboration

Research Centre for Progressive Education

# data[].attributes.body
The European Centre for Progressive Education (ECPE) aims to support and promote knowledge development and sharing among stakeholders in the field of progressive education. The goal of the ECPE is to integrate research, practice and teacher professional development in such a way that each of these components can strengthen each other. To do so, the Centre brings together researchers, teacher educators, and educational professionals to provide a quality incentive to research in the field of progressive education. This way, the ECPE will become a place of study, professional development and research.

he ECPE is the place where global societal developments and the challenges that education has to deal with

(e.g., teacher shortages, inequality) are deliberated, leading to innovative research ideas and

new collaborations to strengthen progressive education. The Centre will be the hub for

progressive education within Europe.

SME’s and smaller governmental organizations experience comparable problems when handling data issues. Which data to collect and how to collect them? How to use AI or data analytics as a city to manage risks or as an SME to forecast customer demand? How to integrate IoT or Data Management standards in our way of working? How to integrate IoT and (real-time) data analytics in our services or products?

The partners of this CoE all have their own data labs, learning communities, and cases in which they apply data. Though the CoE they want to further enhance the quality of their own applied data science and AI research and learn from each other, and to share experiences and best practices, especially on SDG-related topics. The CoE helps smaller organizations to make the digital transition and to seize the benefits of data-driven innovation by making data manageable to gain valuable insights from them.

The main result is a Data Lab with associated learning community/digital workplace for public sector organizations and SME’s at each partner University. Together these Data Labs form a European network.
