This project, in the "Support for the elderly" category, aims to promote a group singing programme, which proposes learning a set of vocal techniques, carrying out group dynamics exercises, learning a choral repertoire of Portuguese songs and performing a public show.


The study involves a device for monitoring and evaluating the effects of this project, based on a mixed methodology, which aims not only to assess specific dimensions of well-being and self-esteem before and after the intervention, but also to explore the perception of technicians and seniors about the involvement, potential and difficulties encountered throughout the project. Thus, the proposal includes the administration of questionnaire surveys on relevant dimensions (such as well-being), ethnographic observation using field notes, interviews with technicians from the institutions involved and focussed discussion groups with senior participants.
