MAFEIP will be used to support the pilot-sites in developing the interventions and to conduct an impact assessment on the socio-economic indicators in a new H2020 project

The MAFEIP User Community has grown to 224 members from 27 different countries (20 within the European Union).

BSA, which was recognised as an EIP on AHA reference site in 2016 for its innovation in active and healthy ageing, had already developed three use cases with the old version of MAFEIP (Mastermind cCVC, Mastermind cCBT, and BeyondSilos).

Several organisations are currently trying MAFEIP 2.0, the new version of the tool launched this year. Based on the feedback received from users, MAFEIP has been enriched with new functionalities that enable a more accurate estimation of the utility and cost-effectiveness of interventions.

MAFEIP is explicitly indicated as the preferred socio-economic impact assessment tool to be used in a number of newly released H2020 topics under the Societal Challenge 1 “Health, demographic change and wellbeing”.

The next EIP on AHA Conference of Partners will take place on the 27^th and 28^th of February in Brussels.
