Accessible Information – enabling older foreign-born individuals to make informed life decisions

Purpose and goal

The project aims to analyze systematic obstacles that limit older foreign-born people´s access to important information from public actors, which reduces their opportunities to make informed decisions and prevent ill-health and social exclusion. The project focuses on solutions for both selective and indicated levels, where proposals aimed at the entire target group improve their access to important information, while individually tailored solutions support particularly vulnerable individuals.

Expected effects and result

The goal is to create a system analysis, concrete solution proposals, an implementation plan and an analysis of expected effects before a future implementation project.

Planned approach and implementation

By using the same collaboration and analysis process as in the development of the KASAM portal, the project must identify in depth problems, needs and obstacles in social actors´ communication to elderly foreign-born and map which actors need to be involved to enable solutions and develop proposals for solutions in order to create comprehensible and accessible communication for older foreign-born. Stage 1: system analysis, Stage 2: proposed solution, Stage 3: Identify actors, roles, development.
