Description
O projeto PerSoParAge - Recursos pessoais e sociais para a autonomia e participação social numa sociedade envelhecida, tem o objetivo de desenvolver propostas e ferramentas de análise e intervenção que respondam aos desafios das regiões envelhecidas do interior de Portugal, partindo de uma avaliação do território, nos distritos de Castelo Branco, Guarda e Portalegre. O consórcio que representa o projeto é formado pelo Instituto Politécnico de Castelo Branco, Instituto Politécnico de Portalegre, Instituto Politécnico da Guarda, Instituto Politécnico de Bragança, Câmara Municipal de Castelo Branco e Câmara Municipal de Idanha-a-Nova. O projeto pretende conhecer os processos e os perfis de envelhecimento das comunidades do interior através da avaliação multidimensional com vista a definir o seu perfil social, funcional e dos recursos disponíveis, assim como identificar as necessidades das organizações destas comunidades. Esta comunicação apresenta os dados da componente de avaliação do conhecimento, utilização e potencial das Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação pelas pessoas mais velhas das regiões estudadas. A metodologia utilizada foi de natureza predominantemente quantitativa, com recursos à aplicação de dois inquéritos por questionário, um destinado aos indivíduos dos 50 aos 64 anos e o outro à população com 65 ou mais anos. Este instrumento foi especificamente elaborado para o efeito, validado por especialistas, contendo questões de resposta fechada e aberta. A análise e discussão dos resultados permitirão a construção de conhecimento que responda aos desafios das alterações demográficas sentidas nas regiões abrangidas e o desenvolvimento de estratégias de intervenção e políticas territoriais de envelhecimento, nomeadamente soluções que promovam a utilização das tecnologias digitais e assistivas, no sentido de melhorar a qualidade de vida dos idosos e de promover a sua integração, participação e implicação no desenvolvimento dos territórios.
The PerSoParAge project - Personal and social resources for autonomy and social participation in an ageing society, aims to develop proposals and tools for analysis and intervention that respond to the challenges of the aged regions of the interior of Portugal, starting from an assessment of the territory, in Castelo Branco, Guarda and Portalegre districts. The consortium representing the project is formed by the Castelo Branco Polytechnic Institute, Portalegre Polytechnic Institute, Guarda Polytechnic Institute, Bragança Polytechnic Institute, Castelo Branco City Council and Idanha-a-Nova City Council. The project aims to know the processes and ageing profiles of the interior communities through multidimensional assessment with a view to defining their social, functional and available resources profile, as well as identifying the needs of these communities' organizations. This paper presents data from the knowledge, use and potential evaluation component of Information and Communication Technologies by older people in the studied regions. The methodology used was predominantly quantitative, with resources to apply two surveys per questionnaire, one for individuals aged 50 to 64 years and the other for the population aged 65 and over. This instrument was specifically designed for this purpose, validated by experts, containing closed and open response questions. The analysis and discussion of the results will allow the construction of knowledge that responds to the challenges of demographic changes felt in the regions covered and the development of intervention strategies and territorial policies of ageing, namely solutions that promote the use of digital and assistive technologies, in order to improve the quality of life of older people and promote their integration, participation and involvement in the development of territories.
