TFGA: Bringing The Digital Divide For Elderly

Under the pandemic, digitalisation has accelerated and become part of our everyday life. For the elderly, how can they adopted to these new challenges? 

The routine services to the elderly has been disrupted during the pandemic. The elderly have to encounter unprecedented difficulties in their ordinary life, from Covid-testing, vaccination, regular medical appointments, or even access to daily necessities. In light of this drastic changes, how should our elderly react and how the digital technologies could help them to cope with these issues?

We and Solis Strategy are co-organising a webinar on 6 August 2021. We have invited speakers from AlipayHK, Facebook, Senior Citizen Home Safety Association and the medical sector, to discuss the real-life problems the elderly faced during the pandemic and share their thoughts on how technology could help everyone in this difficult situation. 

This pre-recorded webinar will be posted on our social media platform. We hope this would help the community to understand the improvements technology can possibly bring to us all.
