• As the works are in progress, the initial the goal of social inclusion and reduction of the discrimination against the habitants of Cross-Border areas, enhanced and strengthened with the contribution of all the participants.
• The target group of the project will be all of the habitants of the areas among the boarders of each Project Beneficiary and there will be a strong contribution from each Municipality to try to develop a web medical file for each habitant.
• The first medical equipments that each Beneficiary is going to provide to the citizens will be given after the appropriate training, to elderly habitants and their relatives, provided they have internet connection in their homes.
