Policy considerations for loneliness interventions
In addition to the offer of interventions, understanding people’s views is essential for the design and implementation of such programmes and initiatives to reduce loneliness: what do individuals think of the role of different actors in supporting lonely people in the EU? Does stigma shape these views? In what kind of activities and interventions do lonely people actually participate to feel less lonely? This policy brief provides insights into these questions based on a new EU-wide survey on loneliness, conducted by the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission in collaboration with Directorate-General for Employment, Social Affairs & Inclusion.
