Diário de Viseu15 September 2026 at 12:15

The municipal council of Viseu and the INATEL Foundation signed a cooperation protocol aimed at reaffirming the municipality's commitment to promoting active aging. The agreement allows for the strengthening of initiatives targeted at senior citizens in the municipality.

The protocol comes within the scope of the municipal social policies of Viseu, which recognize the importance of ensuring quality of life for older citizens. The partnership with the INATEL Foundation aims to continue and expand existing programs.

One of the main objectives of this cooperation is to combat the isolation and loneliness that affect many elderly people. The planned activities aim to promote socialization and emotional well-being among seniors in the district of Viseu.

The INATEL Foundation is an institution with a tradition in social and recreational action in Portugal, which reinforces the capacity for implementing initiatives for the elderly population. This partnership reinforces Viseu's role as a municipality attentive to the needs of its senior citizens.

Why this matters

The elderly in Viseu directly benefit from these programs aimed at reducing social isolation. The renewal of this protocol demonstrates continuity in the municipal investment in the well-being of the senior population.
