Description
Background – European population is changing due to migration flows, urbanization and ageing and other several societal challenges including the climate change, digitalization, the conflict in Ukraine that potentiate the risk of developing mental health problems. Reconnected framework - will respond to this problem by investigating the extent to which societal, environmental individual and societal characteristics interact to one another and affect participants mental health. Interventions will take place in various vulnerability groups across European citizens (nine countries). In Kosovo, the intervention target community will include adults living in low socio-economic status in Pristina municipality. Reconnected aim - is developing and evaluating a digital support system with its intervention tools to facilitate and protect European’s citizen’s mental health, during these times of change. By co-creating and culturally adapting its appropriateness to each participating country, Reconnected will develop personalized micro-interventions (mental health literacy, social prescribing, and resilience components), test its effectiveness, and translate it to policy recommendations. Long term effects – policy recommendations.
