This issue is addressed in this study, constituting a part of the EU project ProHealth65+, engaging ten member countries. This paper is based on two intertwining research goals: (1) explo… Show more

“…The role that each institution played in the projects, was classified according to the SPOFER model [10]: -(S) Setting -a given institution where specific health promotion activities/services are carried out, e.g., by different professionals (the institution itself is not necessarily engaged in health promotion); -(P) Promoter -an institution that implements the program as street-level promoters, educators, informers or advocates; -(O) Organizer -an institution that is responsible for organizing a given intervention by planning, initiating and developing activities, providing administrative support, coordinating actions, managing, enabling proper functioning etc. ; -(F) Financing -an institution that provides funding (entirely or partly) for the given intervention; -(E) Expertise source -an institution that gives an evidence-based or good practice-based opinion, offers expertise and guarantees proper evidence-based quality of health promotion intervention; -(R) Regulation, monitoring and control -an institution that provides legal regulations at different levels and undertakes monitoring and control by supervising, registration or by issuing obligatory approval.…”

“…The current goal of ageing's researchers is both to understand the biology of ageing and the related inflamm-ageing and to translate the potential scientific insights obtained into effective interventions, in order to improve the health in old ages and to retard and/or to delay the onset of age-related diseases (ARDs) [ 1 ]. Thus, antiageing and anti-inflamm-ageing interventions and the parallel health promotion for old people represent the very recent interests not only of the entire scientific community but also of all institutions/organizations from the Western countries and particularly from EU countries [ 2 ]. These last are recommending health promotion programmes, such as EU Project Pro-Health 65+, which engages ten EU member states [ 2 ].…”
