Loneliness and the urban environment: a multi-method study to guide the creation of pro-social places and communities

LoNePlaces, a multidisciplinary and multi-method project, will explore the relationship between loneliness and the urban environment. The project will use geospatial data from population cohorts, qualitative data from interviews, mental maps, photography and participatory workshops, and an experimental study to test community interventions of social prescription. Thus, it is intended to generate evidence to design urban interventions that alleviate loneliness.
