Transforming healthcare workforce motivation through personality and human values
The global shortage of healthcare professionals, aggravated in the post-pandemic era, poses several challenges to resilient and efficient public health systems. To motivate and retain healthcare professionals in high-stress environments requires an in-depth understanding of which aspects factor in their motivation beyond traditional extrinsic incentives. While Public Service Motivation (PSM) has been extensively studied, its interplay with person…
Value in primary care
Background: the global healthcare landscape is shifting towards a paradigm of value-based care, emphasizing patient outcomes, efficiency, and patient-centeredness. Portugal is ready to embrace this transformation, especially with the generalization of the model of formal integration of primary care with hospital care, the Local Health Unit (ULS). Primary health care (PHC) in Portugal, recognized for its robustness in European comparisons, today f…
Designing a Health Strategy at Local Level
This article addresses a gap in the literature regarding the design and implementation of health and well-being strategies by local governments. It presents a conceptual framework that can help local governments to include health and well-being among their political priorities by promoting the participation of local stakeholders and the community in general. The article also highlights the important role that local governments play in public heal…
Unlocking the WHO’s Age-Friendly Healthcare Principles
Countries worldwide are grappling with a pressing demographic challenge characterized by a growing older population. This poses a significant healthcare dilemma, presenting challenges for healthcare systems and providers. To address these challenges, the World Health Organization (WHO) has devised a set of Age-Friendly Principles, aimed at optimizing healthcare provision for older people. This article delves into the current state of healthcare a…
Implementation of the World Health Organization Age-Friendly Principles
Demographic ageing has emphasized the need to adapt current healthcare systems to the comorbidity profile of older adults. In 2004, the World Health Organization (WHO) developed the Age-Friendly Principles, but the approach to their implementation in the health systems still remains uncertain. This article intends to address this gap by assessing how the Principles are perceived and implemented in the Portuguese National Health Service (NHS), whe…
Perceptions on Extending the Use of Technology after the Covid-19 Pandemic Resolves
The COVID-19 pandemic of the last two years has affected the lives of many individuals, especially the most vulnerable and at-risk population groups, e.g., older adults. While social distancing and isolation are shown to be effective at decreasing the transmission of the virus, these actions have also increased loneliness and social isolation. To combat social distancing from family and friends, older adults have turned to technology for help. In…
Social innovation & governance
Findings from a large and growing body of transdisciplinary research offer useful insights for a deeper understanding of the relationships between social innovation and governance. In this article, social innovation (SI) is defined as practices that aim to satisfy neglected human needs, based on collective actions and tighter social relations, potentially generating socio-political transformations. Governance is defined as ‘new ways of governing’…
The High Note of Meaning
Public service motivation (PSM) has provided a new breadth to the study of what attracts and retains workers in public organizations committed to the public mission. The present research contributes to the topic by exploring local government workers' motivation for public service, the meaning they attribute to their activity as public servants, and the relations between PSM and the meaning of work (MOW). An adaptation of the PSM scale to the Port…
Mapping health vulnerabilities
Vulnerability processes and effects, albeit of great importance to cohesion and territorial policies, are nonetheless still underexplored and narrowly operationalized in scientific research. In particular, most assessments rely on economic indicators and a limited territorial scale, which do not have the same analytic potential of a broader view at a national level with regional/municipal similarities, specificities, and inter-connections. This g…
Collaborative place-based health governance systems
This study aimed to assess the Baixo Vouga sub-region (Portugal) governance system through 15 interviews with leaders of institutions with decision-making power and provide healthcare. The interviews were subjected to a content analysis, organized in matrices by cases, categories, subcategories, and indicators. Recording units were extracted from the interviews to produce data for each indicator. A Collaborative Place-based Governance Framework s…

The Role of Cohesion Policy Funds in Decreasing the Health Gaps Measured by the Euro-HEALTHY Population Health Index
Social, economic, and environmental differences across the European Union significantly affect opportunities to move forward in achieving greater equity in health. Cohesion Policy (CP) funds can contribute positively through investments in the main determinants of health. The aim of this study is to analyze to what extent the planned investments for 2014-2020 are addressing the regional health gaps, in light of the population health index (PHI), …
How Are Local Policies Promoting Older People’s Mobility? A Case Study
Aging populations pose a challenge to many policy areas. Although the importance of the built environment on citizens’ mobility and quality of life has been widely acknowledged in the literature, research focusing on elderly people is relatively recent and still scarce namely in Portugal. This article aims at understanding how local stakeholders perceive the built environment and occupational activities targeted to the elderly. The article focuse…
Re‐Thinking Territorial Cohesion in the European Planning Context
The socio‐economic dimensions of cohesion have long been considered an integral part of Europeanization. However, recently a third dimension has been added to the Europe 2020 cohesion policy debate: territorial cohesion. Consequently this term is as yet undeveloped, resulting in a lack of consensus on how to define and interpret it. Such ambiguity represents a theoretical and empirical challenge to regional actors needing to respond to European U…

Policy integration
The significance of spatial policies for health and well-being is well recorded. While there has been an increasing body of literature illustrating the importance of including a territorial perspective in health decision-making processes, evidence shows that policy integration between spatial and health policies is still scarce. This paper aims to develop a deeper understanding of how this integration can be considered in conceptual terms and how…
Governance for health
Increasing attention has been paid to the significant role of governance in health policy-making. The goal is to develop health policies more responsive to local preferences and needs, in coordination with other policies, and adapted to the most suitable spatial scale. Rather than acting as isolated actors, health institutions must look at ways to strengthen collaboration in a cross-sectoral and symbiotic way with other actors. This article repor…
Políticas da saúde e território
Neste artigo discute-se a importância que o território assume na formulação de políticas de saúde. Argumenta-se que o contexto territorial qualifica os processos de tomada de decisão política no que diz respeito à obtenção de ganhos em saúde e à relação equidade/eficiência, reforçando a necessidade de estreitar as sinergias entre as políticas de saúde e as de ordenamento do território. Na prática, porém, pouco se sabe sobre como e em que circunst…
Ambiente construído, saúde pública e políticas públicas
O impacto do ambiente construído na saúde das populações há muito que é reconhecido. Com efeito, esta ligação remonta ao século XIX. Dado o aumento da esperança de vida, as políticas públicas começaram, mais recentemente, a dar particular atenção à maximização da saúde e das capacidades funcionais das pessoas idosas. A ideia consiste em considerar a população idosa não como um problema, mas, antes, como um desafio e como o resultado de um substan…

Cuidados de saúde e território
As alterações que, essencialmente no decurso da última década, têm surgido nos domínios económico, político e social, com repercussões no âmbito dos serviços de saúde, justificam um repensar dos processos de formulação de políticas da saúde. De facto, este conjunto de alterações coloca em discussão as noções de equidade e eficiência à luz das dinâmicas territoriais, obrigando ao reajustamento das perspetivas teórico-concetuais predominantes e à r…
Creating More Intelligent Cities
Since the 1990s, there have been many discussions in both academic and policy communities about the role ICT play in social, economic, and spatial development patterns. During the process, the concept of intelligent cities has emerged and in most cases that concept comes with a sheen of technological determinism. In broad terms, this concept articulates the relationships within and between the city and its surroundings, emphasizing the importance…
