On September 24, a conference discussion titled “Science, Technology, and Humanism: Social Innovation for a Complex World” was held, organized by the Social Welfare Department of the Adeje City Council.
Speakers included Ignacio Aizpún, General Director of ATAM, and Héctor Díez Caso, Director of Digital Transformation at ATAM and CEO of ViveLibre, who emphasized the role of technology in creating tools for the inclusion and social welfare of people with disabilities and their families.
Commitment to the Most Vulnerable
During his address, the mayor of Adeje highlighted the value of this collaboration and how the Alas Foundation, in synergy with ATAM, will expand the scope of services for people with special needs. “The combination of technology and humanism is key to facing the challenges of disability, and ATAM, with its over 50 years of experience, is the perfect partner on this journey,” said Rodríguez Fraga.
Innovation and Technology for Well-being
Ignacio Aizpún called for reflection on the evolution of technology and its impact on disability. He explained, “Technological advancement has improved our quality of life, but it has also created new forms of illness and dependency,” adding that between 5 and 10 new neurodegenerative diseases are discovered each year, increasing the need for innovative solutions in caring for people with disabilities.
ViveLibre: Technology Serving Autonomy
Héctor Díez Caso introduced the ViveLibre system as an innovative solution aimed at delaying the institutionalization of dependent individuals and promoting their autonomy at home. This service is based on the monitoring of health, safety, and social connection parameters, allowing people to live independently for longer.
ViveLibre’s multifactorial telecare service is being applied in an experimental project in more than 500 homes, providing personalized care based on real data. The CEO of ViveLibre highlighted that this technology not only helps improve quality of life but also provides users with the necessary tools to actively manage their health and well-being.
This collaboration between ATAM, the Adeje City Council, and the Alas Foundation represents a significant step towards a person-centered care model, where technology and humanism combine to create a more inclusive future for those living with disabilities.
