HEALTH SCHOOLS — MOSCOW EXPERIENCE IN IMPLEMENTING A HEALTH EDUCATION PROJECT

A unique "Health School" project has been implemented in Moscow to teach older people knowledge about health, prevention of chronic non-communicable diseases, injuries and poisonings. The project was based on the integrative interaction of the Department of Health and the Department of Labor and Social Protection of Moscow. The leading role in the implementation of the project was played by employees of the Research Institute of Healthcare Organization and Medical Management of the Moscow Department of Health. The "Health School" project was successfully implemented in 2023 and its implementation continues in 2024. Training older people in the basics of health conservation has proven its relevance and effectiveness. A promising area of development could be the "Evidence-Based Happy Longevity" Platform, a knowledge base on active longevity issues and "best practices" in this area.
