*Overview*
-----------------------------------------------------------
The guest editors are proud to invite and welcome contributions from
researchers and practitioners to discuss the design, development, and
evaluation of digitally mediated products for active ageing, senior's
citizen sense of belonging and perceived wellbeing.The COVID-19 pandemic
has been extremely challenging to address several research contexts and
suddenly the “Online Social Environments for Active Ageing” were started
to be perceived somewhat as the "new" environment.
Three big factors contribute – processual, social, individual – to
determine the technological environments evolution and its relationship
with the active aging. For sure the pandemic has generated a higher
awareness about their potential, and it is likely that they will no
longer be the same after the pandemic. Papers that report work that
nurtures a post-pandemic view, namely, case studies, reviews and
methodological proposals; pandemics/social confinement/ COVID-19; the
socio-techno-ethical dimensions associated to the adopted digitally
mediated strategies to overpass the boundaries of social distancing
measures; digital policy strategies for active aging; impact of
entrepreneur experiences are especially welcome.
