With this research we want to gain insight into the impact of the neighborhood on feelings of loneliness. The influence of gender, personality and life course on loneliness has been extensively researched, but little is known about what role the neighborhood plays.
With this research we want to map interventions in Flanders that focus on tackling loneliness.
Our researchers developed an online workbook 'Oog voor Eenzaamheid'. That will familiarize you with the theme of loneliness. It focuses on students, professionals in healthcare and welfare, volunteers... Through three modules with information, exercises and inspiration, you will become more expert in the prevention and approach of loneliness.
