Evaluating the social return on investment of nature-based social prescribing to alleviate loneliness
Introduction: Loneliness is associated with adverse health outcomes, including cardiovascular diseases, depression, and premature mortality, and is unequally distributed according to social determinants. Prescribing individuals to community-based interventions in nature, often described as nature-based social prescribing (NBSP), has emerged as a promising intervention to address loneliness. This study aims to quantify the social return of investm…
Adapting and applying a group facilitator training model to support nature-based social interventions for alleviating loneliness in five countries
Implementing psychosocial health interventions in new target groups in different cultures requires rigorous training. The ‘Circle of Friends’ (CoF) model has proven to be effective for helping lonely older adults. The aim of this article is to describe in detail how professionals’ training in using the CoF model was modified to create the ‘Friends in Nature (FiN)’ intervention in the EU-funded ‘RECETAS’ project for use in five other countries (Sp…

Is education level, as a proxy for socio-economic position, related to device-measured and self-reported sedentary behavior in European older adults? A cross-sectional study from the Sitless project
Background Sedentary behavior (SB) is a determinant of health in older adult people. Educational level is a primary driver of health disparities and is demonstrated to be a reliable measure of socioeconomic position. We aimed to examine the associations between educational level and self-reported along with device-measured SB in older adults living in Europe and the association of mentally active and passive SB domains with the educational level …

Social capital interventions targeting older people and their impact on health
Promoting social capital to alleviate loneliness and improve health among older people in Spain
Loneliness is especially frequent among older people in Southern Europe. Furthermore, promoting social capital to tackle loneliness and its health effects is an understudied intervention strategy. Therefore, a complex intervention was piloted in Spain in a pre-post study with a 2-year follow-up. Its aims were to explore the feasibility of the intervention and its short- and long-term effects. It was conducted in one mixed rural-urban and two urba…
