GOLTC Innovation in Long-term Care Interest Group webinar

Date: 24 Nov 2025

How can we innovate to future-proof long-term care systems?

The Global Observatory of Long-term Care (GOLTC) hosted a webinar to explore innovative approaches shaping the future of long-term care. Learn about the pioneering SASCI Project in the U.K., which sought to build evidence on how to support the adult social care sector in starting, implementing, and scaling affordable innovations and the transformative potential of Timebanking in older adult care from Hong Kong. This is a unique chance to gain practical insights, connect with academic experts, and be part of a movement to create more innovative and sustainable long-term care systems worldwide.
