\n

The Inclusive Communities for Older Immigrants (ICOI) partnership is a multidisciplinary, multi-sector, multi-province project that has built sustainable connections to generate knowledge about social isolation and connectedness among older immigrants, support multidirectional knowledge exchange, and improve the lives of older immigrants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The partnership is informed by complementary theoretical approaches and focuses on interconnected research streams of social, economic, political, and geo-spatial inclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are using critical ethnography and mixed methods to carry out the project in four phases:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) D\u00e9terminer les facteurs sociaux, \u00e9conomiques et politiques essentiels qui contribuent \u00e0 l\u2019isolement social et \u00e0 la connexit\u00e9 sociale chez les immigrants \u00e2g\u00e9s;
2) Cerner et examiner les interventions utilis\u00e9es pour favoriser la connexit\u00e9 sociale;
3) co-design multi-level, multi-component interventions to promote social connectedness among older adults in three communities (Mandarin, Punjabi and Arabic-speaking immigrants) and build community capacity via implementation with community partners; and
4) \u00c9valuer la faisabilit\u00e9 et la fid\u00e9lit\u00e9 de la mise en \u0153uvre et de l\u2019efficacit\u00e9 des interventions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Phase 1, an extensive review of the literature was conducted and about 35 determinants of social isolation in older immigrants have been identified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A survey among community partners and older immigrants to examine the relevance of these factors in the Canadian context have been conducted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are currently engaging in qualitative interviews with older immigrants to explore their perspectives on these factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Phase 2, we are exploring social isolation and predictors of change, and we have already conducted a literature search and review to identify evidence-based interventions aimed at promoting social connectedness. We have already presented our preliminary results at two summits attended by academic and community partners and are in the process of disseminating our results in other formats such as academic articles, and presentations at conferences.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
