HOMeAGE is a European Union-funded project between nine universities and more than twenty governmental and non-governmental sectors that aims to institute an interdisciplinary, intersectoral, and international programme of doctoral training and research that drives the development of new leaders in excellence for the advancement of evidence-based innovation on ageing in place under Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions.

Ageing in place is critical to the future of ageing societies in Europe. Older people’s places are recognised as fundamental to long term health and wellbeing outcomes. With 92 million community-dwelling older people in Europe, and a projected increase to 130 million by 2050, targeting advances in ageing in place is crucial. However, there is a striking absence of research leaders who can negotiate cross-discipline, cross-sector research-policy deficits, and who will lead coordinated developments. The HOMeAGE Doctoral Network responds to this absence.
HOMeAGE will address three interconnected challenges of (1) needs and systems, (2) home and belonging, and (3) rights and voice, through the work of the 12 DRs and their individual research projects (IRPs).
