Our final #TCC2025 keynote, delivered by Prof. Håkan Jönson and Prof. Tove Harnett, guides us to escape “cognitive traps” and rethink how we view older people and their rights through a “disability lens”. They frame older care receivers as rights-holders, not just collaborators in care systems.

In our research, we dive into the challenges of measuring digital engagement in the ageing population with standard #survey measures. Using qualitative pretest interviews with people aged 70+ who do not use the internet, we uncover surprising insights into their digital behaviour and perception.⬇️
