Abstract

To shape and facilitate the social perspectives for elderly people, an extensive evaluation of the perceptions and needs with respect to the easing of the COVID-19 restrictions is needed. In this regard it is important to talk with them instead of about them. Therefore the general aim of this project is to investigate the perceptions and practical needs of elderly people with respect to the easing of the COVID-19 measures.
