As the main objective, we established the development of a guide focused on the exchange of good practices about the promotion of awareness and self-management of physical, emotional, and social health among people over 60 within the scope of adult education in line with goal number 3 of the Sustainable Development Goals: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages. As complementary objectives the project has included: - The acquisition of knowledge about the practices that improve health education. - Prevention of diseases and pathologies and premature dependence of the elderly. - Improving the quality of life of the population. In our vision, we aspired to have regular, stable and procedural contacts with the health administration to act as multipliers of relevant medical-health information at any time. Our goal was to be able to program the best training offer aimed at the physical, mental and emotional health of the elderly and to do it in a synchronised way together with the health administration. In this way, we have carried out three types of activities in the development of the Erasmus+ project: - Transnational meetings, in which specific objectives have been set and the most appropriate strategies have been designed for their development. - Activities related to learning, teaching and training and in successive proposals we have analyzed the execution of specific training activities extracting from them the - analyses included in the good practices that are a substantial part of the entire initiative. - Our publications are a guide for the interpretation and collection of essential data for the development of training activities that are considered good practices. We suggest visiting the website to deepen into the details because it is useful to find the descriptions of each of these activities, minutes and reports of results included. We exposed all the available documentary resources on how these exemplary practices are carried out. Finally, after making questionnaires of satisfaction with the activities carried out and the description of the suitability concerning what was expected and due to its results, we could reach a high level of quality in terms of the results of the project. As a background to the Health+60 initiative, we managed joint planning of adult education by health administrations and adult education organisations. Thus, the reception that our activity has had in forums of the state, territorial, municipal, medical, union, charitable health administrations, etc. seems to be an indirect measure of quality and evaluation of results that these organisations grant.

The project was born due to the growing need to have the necessary tools and resources to address one of the most pressing social issues nowadays: the ageing of the population. We know the key position that adult education institutions have to contribute to an improvement in the quality of life of people over 60, but for this role to be played effectively, it is necessary to have a guide or compendium of methodologies that have been effective so far. We find the need to tune in to the interests and needs of the health administration and the education of the elderly in order to multiply their respective preventive, healing and educational potential. Our vision can be located in a place in time where there are stable relations between the health administration and our adult education institutions to act in a coordinated manner in order to provide the most appropriate training to anticipate the health challenges that threaten the elderly group.
