On June 15, TecnoCampus participated in the open day of the Espai Mataró Cuida, an initiative organized within the framework of World Elder Abuse and Maltreatment Awareness Day.
Open Day of the Espai Mataró Cuida
The day brought together nearly 200 people in a community action that aimed to promote citizen awareness of a reality that is often made invisible and to strengthen the collective commitment to the good treatment and dignity of the elderly.
The program included a popular walk open to the public and various informative, participatory and educational activities at the Espai Mataró Cuida, a leading facility in the field of care, aging and social innovation. The day became a meeting point between citizens, professionals, entities and institutions that work to promote the well-being and quality of life of older people.
TecnoCampus had a stand to inform citizens and other participating entities about the lines of research and knowledge transfer that it promotes to contribute to healthy aging. During the day, doctoral student Diana Flaqué, from the Chair of Aging and Quality of Life, presented the SEREM project, a study aimed at women over 65 years of age residing in Mataró that aims to better understand how social relationships, feelings of loneliness, memory, attention and emotional well-being influence the aging process.
Participation in this conference is part of TecnoCampus' commitment to knowledge transfer and collaboration with local agents to promote more inclusive, safe and friendly environments for older people. Actions like this allow research to be brought closer to citizens and highlight the role of innovation and scientific knowledge in building more cohesive communities committed to the well-being of all people.
