Evidence-Based Guidelines on Health Promotion for Older People

The central aim of the healthPROelderly project was to contribute fundamentally to the development of health promotion for older people through producing guidelines and recommendations for potential actors in this field at EU, national and local level. The specific objectives of the healthPROelderly project were:

? to carry out a literature review concerning health promotion of older people in each of the participating countries.

? to identify models for health promotion for older people in each of the participating countries, evaluate three of them in each country and make them available in the form of a database on the website (www.healthproelderly.com).

? to inform and raise the awareness among experts and authorities throughout the EU about the issue of ageing and the impact of demographic change on our society.
