What is the GECKO Project?
GECKO is an Erasmus+ funded initiative dedicated to reducing digital exclusion among older adults across Europe.
The project develops a structured training programme for digital facilitators — known as “GECKOs” — who support seniors in using smartphones, tablets, online services, eHealth and communication tools.
By combining education with community-based support, GECKO strengthens independence, social participation and digital confidence among older generations.
European Partnership
The GECKO Project is implemented by a consortium of European organisations committed to lifelong learning, digital inclusion and active ageing.
Through cross-border cooperation and knowledge exchange, the partnership develops innovative and sustainable solutions for supporting seniors in the digital world.
