The program was launched in December 2012 and lasted for three years. It was implemented within the framework of the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7). The coordinator of IROHLA was Academisch Ziekenhuis Groningen (UMCG) in the Netherlands. Apart from Prolepsis, 20 other partners were involved in the project.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe IROHLA project aims to introduce evidence-based guidelines for policy and practice for a comprehensive approach improving health literacy of the ageing population in member states of the European Union.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tHealth literacy is one of the social determinants of health and reflects how well persons can understand, digest and critically reflect on information with regard to health and illness. People with sufficient health literacy skills are able to act proactively on health issues, take their own decisions and manage health and illness well. Right now in EU countries 10%-30% of the population has insufficient health literacy skills, which is associated with higher morbidity and mortality, while utilization of health services is higher and treatment outcomes are poorer than average. Health literacy is a major issue amongst the ageing population in Europe. Tackling health literacy problems in the ageing population leads to social innovation and reduction of costs in healthcare. This project will address health literacy issues of older people through a comprehensive approach which combines empowering interventions and health literacy communication, applying cross-sectoral and cross- national learning.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMore specifically, IROHLA aims to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n\t\tContribute to the understanding of health literacy in different European contexts and develop a comprehensive model for addressing health literacy needs in older adults in various settings<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tAssess &ndash; based on a manual &ndash; the quality and feasibility of health literacy interventions\/activities in the ageing population<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tSelect from a long list of interventions a set of maximum 20 interventions which together constitute a comprehensive approach of addressing health literacy needs of the ageing population and pilot them<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tDevelop an evidence based guideline for policy and practice at national, regional and local level which shows policy makers the specific and important measures they can take&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tActively disseminate the results.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p>\n\tContact information&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\n\tPania Karnaki, MA, Project coordinator:&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:p.karnaki@prolepsis.gr\">p.karnaki@prolepsis.gr<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>\n\tServices:&nbsp;<b>Preventive Medicine<\/b><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>\n\t<u><strong>Project partners<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Coordinator:<\/strong><br \/>\n\tAcademisch Ziekenhuis Groningen, the Netherlands<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Associated partners:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n\tCBO BV (CBO), the Netherlands&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tUniversity of Groningen (RUG), the Netherlands&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tJacobs University Bremen (JacobsUni), Germany&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tBaltic Region Healthy Cities Association (BRHCA), Finland&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tNational University of Ireland Galway (NUIG), Ireland&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tUniversity of East Anglia (UEA), UK&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tNational Institute for Health Development (OEFI), Hungary&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tEuroHealthNet (EHN), Belgium&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tItalian National Institute on Ageing (INRCA), Italy&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tFederal Centre for Health Education (BZgA), Germany&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tAGE Platform Europe (AGE-Platform), Belgium&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tEuropean Social Insurance Platform (ESIP), Belgium&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tRegional Agency for Health Marche Region (ARS), Italy&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tHanze University of Applied Science Groningen (HUAS), the Netherlands&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tCambo Industries Digital (Cambo), Greece&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tLiveonline Coaching (LoL), Germany&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tETV-NL (ETV), The Netherlands&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tNoordhoff Publishers (Noordhoff), The Netherlands&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tIP Health Solutions BV (IPH -Vita), The Netherlands&nbsp;<br \/>\n\tAOK Bundesverband (AOK), Germany<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>\n\tRelative links<br \/>\n\t<span color:=\"\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.irohla.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.irohla.eu<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seventh Framework Programme (FP7)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5798,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[113,106,111],"tags":[102],"class_list":["post-7817","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-education","category-programs","category-research","tag-health-communication"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 -
