IT Funk is The Norwegian Research Council's RTD-programme on ICT for people with disability.
Universal design and accessibility for all. The purpose of IT Funk is to contribute to accessibility for all, including persons with disability, to information and communication technology (ICT) and to society through the use of ICT. ICT-based products and services developed for the general market must be accessible and useful for everyone at reasonable prices. IT Funk pays special attention to areas where accessibility issues impact on a person's life chances, such as education, employment and basic services to citizens.
The Ambient Assisted Living Joint Programme (AAL JP) is a joint European research, development and innovation activity with 23 participating countries. As of July 2009, the IT Funk website will present summaries of AAL-projects with Norwegian partners under the caption AAL Projects in the navigation menu.
Information about all AAL-projects will be published on the AAL JP website at http://www.aal-europe.eu.
