Abstract

This monothematic issue in part originated with the ROSEnet: “Reducing Old age Social Exclusion through Collaborations in Research and Policy” (CA 15122) COST Action, supported by the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme of the European Union. The picture ROSEnet draws shows how interconnected the various aspects of social exclusion may be and how subtle the networks of support are. Their embeddedness in the community and space give an opportunity to develop measures to rebuild, reframe, reinforce, and strengthen the sociophysical space and therefore provide hope for improved outcomes in terms of increased wellbeing and life quality as we age.
