Social Value is the value created when individuals, involved, trained and activated by health professionals, adopt healthier and more proactive behaviors, promote themselves in their community and thus contribute to improving individual and collective health and well-being.
The MeS Laboratory is involved in various projects aimed at investigating the aforementioned processes and mechanisms of value creation, through the collaborative participation of the various players in the system. Some projects in the field of health promotion and prevention, such as 'BeFood', 'Diabetes Self-Management Program' and 'IDEA', based on behavior change strategies, have produced evidence on how it is possible to achieve positive health outcomes thanks to the active role of the participants.
