Eusko Ikaskuntzako Solasaldiak: Koro Muro Arriet / Jean-Philippe Nicot

According to the latest edition of the report, which measures the living conditions of the population, more than 75% of older people in the Basque Country want to age in their own homes and communities, even if it means needing assistance. Making this wish a reality in rural areas is increasingly difficult because, in addition to the usual reasons, there is another problem: in rural areas, frailty often goes unnoticed, as a long time can pass before anyone realizes that someone needs help. The Transis Lab project was created to address these challenges in a practical way. Working with older people themselves, in the Basque Country, and through coordination among different stakeholders, it has been testing and developing new models to slow the progression of frailty among older adults on both sides of the border. Two members of the project's knowledge transfer team, Jean-Philippe Nicot and Koro Muro Arriet, discuss all of this. They explain the context of the social need, what has worked in the project, and how all the knowledge generated will be transferred to society. https://www.eusko-ikaskuntza.eus/es/p...
