Resumo(s)
Loneliness and isolation among the elderly is an enormous problem in Portugal. Interventions
to tackle loneliness worldwide have had limited success, and new approaches are needed.
Shared Lives is an adult foster placement service in the UK that shows significant promise in
tackling both loneliness, isolation and other societal challenges linked with ageing. This
feasibility study suggests that replicating a Shared Lives service in Portugal, using a Social
Impact Bond (SIB), is viable and likely to create both social and financial value for all
stakeholders involved. This study provides recommendations for how a Shared Lives SIB
could be designed and implemented.
