Abstract: This report presents a summary of the existing knowledge and a critical assessment of practices in inclusive design of innovative solutions for the implementation of Smart Healthy Age-Friendly Environments (SHAFE), as well as recommendations for the future, in line with the objectives defined for the Working Group 3 of NET4Age-Friendly. In this document, the process of creation, development and mapping of a Matrix to synthesize existing knowledge and critically assess practices of inclusive design of innovative solutions for SHAFE is detailed.
