- Abstract
Such an interventionist logic also results in a certain paternalism in technology development for older people: Experts and not older adults themselves, define both later life problems and their potential digital solutions [[16]]. As a result, the role of non-academic co-researchers in projects remains underdefined, creating challenges for standardized processes in academic institutions, such as ethics committees or concerns around renumeration and insurance of co-researchers. We focus on participatory perspectives on research digitalization and highlight the perspectives of older adults towards digital inclusion and exclusion and showcase how technology development could look like if older adults were actively involved in it.
