摘要：This article describes a case study on a project to create cooperation between international (EU) and national governments,small and large enterprises,universities and non-governmental charitable and social organizations.It explains the nature of the project and investigates the implications of the project for the discourse concerning the Triple Helix.The project,still in progress at the time of writing,required the stimulation of large scale and pervasive innovative responses to the challenge of aging populations in European countries,particularly as regards the creation of appropriate homes and neighborhoods that will enable the new generation of older adults to live well,happily and healthily.People in this new generation is conventionally referred to as baby boomers,the largest,longest lived,healthiest,wealthiest,longest working older generation that Europe has ever seen.The paper describes the first stage of the project - the creation of an inclusive dialogue between the different parties.Then it presents a discussion of the learnings from the case study for organizers of other similar dialogues,based upon an in-depth interview with the initiator of the project,who is also one of this article’s co-authors.It also proposes a new configuration of Triple Helix model.We conclude this paper by presenting a question that Triple Helix participants as agents of change will have to answer in the future.
