SALTO Project (Social Animation for Life quality training and tools)

It is a social action program based on the training of social workers to improve the quality of life of dependent elderly people and people with functional diversity. The project focuses on combining "life projects" and "care projects", providing personalized support through holistic solutions. Such solutions involve breaking down the compartmentalization between the health and social environments, to start thinking and working in a coordinated way.

Social workers' interventions focus on providing daily support to elderly or disabled people through occupational activities, educational methods and non-pharmacological therapies. The SALTO project aims to integrate such socio-educational methods as part of daily therapy, to develop or maintain cognitive, bodily and social skills, which are fundamental for quality of life.

Objectives

Improve the quality of life of elderly people in a situation of dependency and people with functional diversity through:

• Promoting mindfulness and alternative media approaches.
• The integration of social action in a therapeutic dimension.
• The development of physical, psychological, cognitive and social skills.

Financing

Project financed by the EU from the ERASMUS + (KA2) program.
