The Minister of Social Rights<\/strong>, M\u00f2nica Mart\u00ednez Bravo, visited the \u201cVincles Alt Pirineu-Aran\u201d<\/strong> project in Sort\u2014an initiative aimed at tackling unwanted loneliness in the Alt Pirineu and Val d\u2019Aran through community intervention<\/strong>, technology<\/strong>, and citizen involvement<\/strong>. The visit was also attended by the President of the Pallars Sobir\u00e0 County Council, Carlos L.

During her visit, the Minister learned firsthand about the program\u2019s operations. Since 2023, Vincles <\/strong>has been established in over twenty municipalities across the Catalan Pyrenees. The project introduces a more proactive approach to addressing unwanted loneliness<\/strong>, leveraging Big Data technology for early detection of social isolation in people over 55 and activating local networks and citizen participation to intervene and provide support in identified cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the project presentation, Vincles representatives and the Minister visited a local business involved in the program, where they spoke with the project\u2019s community activator<\/strong> in Pallars Sobir\u00e0, social worker Elena Santos, as well as two community agents (local business professionals who voluntarily participate in the project to identify potential cases of unwanted loneliness) and two elderly beneficiaries. This exchange provided valuable insight into the work of Vincles and the positive impact it is having in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n
