Why and for whom

Hariak was created to...

  • Talk openly about loneliness, to better understand it together.

  • Make it easier for people to connect with each other, to make Gipuzkoa a place where relationships are important and strong.

  • Build more connected neighbourhoods where coexistence and mutual support are a priority.

  • •    Improve the quality of life of the elderly, whilst keeping all citizens in mind.

  • Tell stories that help us to recognise moments of loneliness in our lives and how we can enjoy them, prevent them or face them.

  • Create support, care and community networks.

  • Develop a Hariak network to tackle loneliness in Gipuzkoa, dynamically involving organisations, individuals and communities.

These are some of the challenges faced by Hariak. In order to tackle them, Adinberri Fundazioa (Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa) believes that the collaboration of different organisations, voluntary work and the participation of the citizens of Gipuzkoa are important.
