Care4-a-better-Life² Award 2025

Have you implemented an innovative idea in your everyday work?

Would you like to show how good care supports a self-determined life in old age or how you have successfully changed images of old age in a positive way? Then this competition is just right for you!

Take part: Care4-a-better-Life² Award - ‘Good care exists!’ Show us your perspective and your creative ideas from your everyday work.

ALTENPFLEGE, in cooperation with the Edgar and Nina Kummerfeldt Foundation, is looking for the best ideas in these three categories:

Improving quality of life: projects that sustainably improve the lives of people in need of care.
Creating new images of old age: Approaches that positively change society's image of old age.
Enabling a self-determined life: Networks that support senior citizens in their neighbourhoods.

The jury is made up of high-calibre representatives from the care sector.

Care4-a-better-Life² Award

The three best submissions, selected by a high-calibre jury, will win the Care4-a-better-Life² Award - an exclusive photo shoot with photographer René Schwerdtel. Your initiative will be presented at the ALTENPFLEGE 2026 in Essen - the perfect stage for your vision!
