This paper presents an overview of preparing vulnerability assessment due to climate change on the selected model area. Vulnerability Assessment is one of the key outcomes of the project CLISP – Climate Change, Adaptation by Spatial Planning in the Alpine Space (Transnational Cooperation Alpine Space) which aims to contribute to mitigating spatial conflicts related to climate change, to reduce vulnerability of various activities and spatial structures to the adverse effects of climate change and related damages and costs. It briefly describes a method for the preparation of vulnerability assessment and provides key results. Vulnerability Assessment is prepared for the Gorenjska Region, which was chosen as the model region. Vulnerability Assessment is presented for all those spatial systems or sectors that have been deemed important for the development of the region, these are the spatial development, settlements and infrastructure, tourism, energy, agriculture and forestry. At the end, vulnerability assessment of the whole region is also presented

COBISS.SI-ID: 6668409Telecare is an innovative system that represents an applied form of an intelligent environment. Users’ home environments are arranged following the smart house concept, connected to a remote monitoring network, and through this to providers of care and other services. Telecare represents a great opportunity for the elderly because it enables users to remain in their home environments for as long as possible, but it also raises many concerns. Therefore, opportunities, problems and solutions of a telecare are analyzed.

COBISS.SI-ID: 2385091Due to the anticipated opportunities provided by telecare, some countries have begun establishing remote home care systems as part of the regular or general health and social care system (e.g., the British government has also worked out a strategic plan and started building a network to establish a telecare system). However, numerous setbacks have been met from the very beginning. Therefore, establishing a remote home care systems for the elderly in society is criticaly evaluated in the paper.
