Population aging is one of the most urgent challenges currently facing Gipuzkoa. Our project seeks to use this challenge as an opportunity and to provide a present and future response that will extend a model of comprehensive and innovating care for elderly people, with the ultimate aim of improving their quality of life and lengthening their disability-free life expectancy.
The AdinBerri project aspires to instil healthy living habits among older people in order to take precautions and extend their independence. It also strives to provide any support they may need to enable them to retain control of their everyday lives and to continue living a meaningful life in accordance with their own values and preferences within the framework of an inclusive and cohesive society for all generations. Adinberri also seeks to develop and promote an economy around aging which will cater to seniors.
ADINBERRI has identified six main challenges:
- Illness prevention and health promotion.
- Comprehensive care at home.
- The residential care model.
- The Silver Economy: business models.
- Valuable aging. Life Proyect.
