The ASTAHG project created a Transnational Governance Board (Output OT1.1) with the aim to gather public/private actors from different levels/sectors/territorial specificities who impact on the AHA of AS population.

Starting from the categories of the 4Helix paradigm (PAs, academia, communities and business), a logic classification of the governance approaches and actors involved was developed, taking into account information on AS governance models and initiatives implementation on AHA, including level of the governance (national/regional/local), sector, faced problem, territorial context (urban, mountain and rural area) and other features that can emerge from the data gathering of WP3.

This work package developped a methodology to assess the impact of AHA governance, monitor the progress and identify remaining challenges. The activity will adapt the current AAI into a comprehensive tool for needs and impact assessment of AHA governance, based on: *multiple criteria relevant for decision making in AHA governance; *stakeholder preferences (and variation therein), reflected in weights between relevant criteria; *specific indicators to represent the peculiarity in the AS area.

This work package will understand how Alpine Space (AS) regions face the ageing population trend and which governance models have significant impact. Information on governance models will be gathered and assessed, using  methodology for AHA governance assessment tools. Input and feedback will come from meetings in Transnational board meeting and events. Most innovative initiatives will be identified with methodology fr AHA governance assessment metrics. Communication activities like publications, digital activities and publics events will support raising awareness and disseminating the knowledge gathered and validated in this WP.
