Citizen-centered health platform for cross-border regions (SALUS)

The SALUS project aims to provide a citizen-centered healthcare platform that can be used in cross-border regions within Europe. Cross-border regions are defined as areas in which social and economic exchange takes place across national borders. One example of this is the four-country region around Lake Constance. The overarching challenges of the project are: (a) Social: Improving citizen-centered health and care services; (b) Technical: Providing a digital platform for networking citizens, service providers, and local actors; (c) Economic: Developing long-term successful (sustainable) business models and value chains. Healthcare network structures in the Western Balkan countries, if they exist at all, are generally far less established than in the historical core areas of the EU.
