Résumé anglais In line with the theory of social sustainability, policies for long-time care are in search of new sustainable services for old people. There is a clear need for innovative services that avail of the new technologies, as demographic and epidemio-logical projections indicate a rise in demand for social services to which the systems presently in place do not have the capacity to respond. The use of the new technologies is an innovative solution by which to improve the sustainability of these systems and the promotion of healthy and active aging. The authors give a general survey of the initiatives that have been developed in the context of European policies involving the use of the new technologies to improve the quality of life of old people and active and healthy aging in their own homes.
