Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic brought into the spotlight the technological needs of carers together with accessibility and availability of disease-related web-based services. Athens Alzheimer Association undertook the cultural adaptation of the platform iSupport in Greece. The process included multiple methodological steps based on Ecological Validity Model, and the platform was pilot tested to 15 carers of people with dementia. The duration of this project lasted for one year (April 2020-March 2021). Today more than 160 carers in Greece have registered on the platform. All 23 lessons are easily accessible by the isupportdementia-greece website.
