We study aging, develop care technology and promote the safe home as a universal right, because a longer and healthier life cannot be a privilege.
THE GLOBAL LONGEVITY CHALLENGE
Population aging is one of the greatest social challenges of our time.
The Canary Islands, Spain and Europe are facing a demographic transformation that requires new solutions centred on health, innovation and community.
Fundación LONGENIA works to connect science, innovation and social action in order to build new responses to this challenge.
OUR MISSION
In the Fundación Canaria ALCASIV (public brand: Fundación LONGENIA), we work to ensure that extending life is always linked to autonomy, dignity, and social well-being. We anticipate European demographic change by promoting safe living environments, proactive telehealth, and international scientific research networks.
Learn more about usThe LONGENIA approach
We collaborate with international institutes such as the Bilu Huang Institute for Aging Research (BHIAR) to support research into the cellular and molecular mechanisms of aging, including the TRCS Model of Cell Senescence, one of the most robust and promising theoretical frameworks currently available for explaining biological aging and opening pathways for human rejuvenation research.
ExploreWe transform homes into healthy, safe and intelligent spaces that allow older and vulnerable people to remain in control of their lives within the community.
DiscoverWe develop non-invasive monitoring systems and adaptive Artificial Intelligence to move from reactive emergency healthcare to continuous and preventive support.
Learn moreWe promote deinstitutionalisation, intergenerational equity and the development of the care sector in line with European and Spanish human-rights guidelines.

Villa LONGENIA will be a pilot deinstitutionalisation project in the Canary Islands, creating a safe, dignified and technology-enabled home for people with disabilities.
This space will demonstrate a new approach based on autonomy, community and people’s wellbeing.
FLAGSHIP INITIATIVE · LONGENIA CARE
Unlike conventional telecare, which is based on responding to emergencies, LONGENIA Care proposes a Person-Centred Integrated Care model (AICP), combining non-invasive technology, professional support and health-social care coordination to anticipate risks and support autonomy, dignity and remaining at home.
Better care means caring earlier.
