The European Commission, supported by Funka as Coordinator of the WE4AHA Coordination and Support Action providing a wide range of services to the EIP on AHA community launched in June the 3rd Call for Reference Sites. Today, 77 regional and local organisations have been awarded for building advance innovation and addressing the challenges of delivering health and care services to the ageing population.  We are very happy to see our members among the awarded Reference Sites, which bring together a wide range of stakeholders based on a "Quadruple Helix" model including representatives from industry, civil society, academia and government authorities at a regional and local level. We would particularly like to congratulate South Denmark, Andalusia, Catalonia, the Basque country, HANNN and Scotland who are awarded with 4* and a certificate of excellence for their innovative achievements within the healthcare sector.  Would you like to meet and engage with the new Reference Sites?
