practical application
Explanation:
I think they are talking about the changing role of "home economics": from being strictly for girls and children to being unisex, for all citizens and for older people.

Thanks - I ended up using "practical target" with a sentence like:
Moreover, with the participation of both men and women in home and school club activities, we found that the practical target “society” underwent a major shift from serving the needs of “women” and “children” toward serving the needs of the “regional community” and “senior citizens.”
