ProHealth 65+ Health promotion and prevention of risk - action for seniors.

The newly launched project ProHealth 65+, focused on health promotion and prevention of health risks among seniors, held its kick-off meeting on 3-4 November in Luxemburg. The project seeks to determine effective methods of promoting a healthy lifestyle among older population groups by bringing together knowledge and experience of main partners and health promoters from Poland, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands and exchange it with collaborating partners: Portugal, Greece, Bulgaria, Czech and Hungary. The effective implementation of training for health promoters working with this age group is the ultimate project goal. The Centre for Social Policy Research – represented by Heinz Rothgang and Kai Huter –  is the German project partner.
