1. Bridging Aging and Disability Networks: "Strategies for Translating Knowledge into Practice" Luis Salvador-Carulla MD, PhD

2. A number of questions – –What is the context? – –What is the challenge? – –What is the alternatives? – – What are the main components? – – What are the examples?

3. Advances in the XXI Century Ageing as an opportunity Ageing as an opportunity – New models of ageing Active ageing, Promotion, Mental capital Active ageing, Promotion, Mental capital –New services and care systems – Supports and HTs for ageing Add case of the painter with down syndrome & Parada Disability as an advantage New models of disability (ICF) New models of disability (ICF) Social Inclusion, Person centred care Social Inclusion, Person centred care Empowerement and Recovery Empowerement and Recovery Accesibility and Employment Accesibility and Employment Supports and HTs for disabilities Supports and HTs for disabilities

5. Integrative care model: 10 priority areas Pre-disease pathways- Life-span Positive psychology- Health promotion Genetics - Behavioural phenotypes Personal links- Risks and outcomes Healthy communities Inequities- Context / environment People’s health Effective interventions- Routine practice New methods- Analysis of complexity Infrastructure- Costs and health policy

6. MENTAL CAPITAL THROUGH THE LIFE COURSE: Flourishing through life / Early detect. & tx. / Chronic conditions

7. What is the challenge? – –We need to know more about the link D&A Persons with disabilities who grow old Older persons who become disabled – – AGEING as a field has a lot to contribute to the field of DISABILITY and viceversa – – AGEING AND DISABILITY share common values, models, needs and priorities Common policy agenda (implicit – hidden)

8. Can we understand disability without ageing? Can we understand ageing without disability’

9. In the D&A fields, their agents and principals do not talk to each other and, when they talk they do not communicate “If the word ‘X’ is used I will leave this table...” “Your model is not acceptable for us...”

10. D&A Gap: Unwanted consequences Functional Dependency EU Recommendation and related Dependency laws were based exclusively on Ageing and failed to provide effective coverage for SMI, ID and other Disabilities in Europe UN Convention for Persons with Disabilities is seen as ‘alien’ by the ageing sector Missing opportunities of knowlegde, innovation and policy change

11. Ejemplos Similar programs without any transfer…

12. Paradigm shift in health/social policy 1. Lavis et al, Health Research Policy and Systems 2009 (SUPPORT MODEL ) 2. Gibert et al, Health Research Policy and Systems 2010 (EbCA MODEL)

13. A number of questions – –What is the context? – –What is the challenge? – –What is the alternative? – – What are the main components? – – What are the examples?

18. Where next?

19. A&D: Knowledge transfer - WHAT KNOWLEDGE? - HOW SHOULD IT BE TRANSFERRED? - WHO TRANSFERS IT?

20. BRIDGING & KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER – –B/KT is a construct with two main domains Bridging cannot be made without KT KT cannot be made without bridging – –Tension between perspectives Broad perspective without content High content without generalisability – –B/KT has both general aspects and specific aspects in D&A fields

21. What is B/KT? – –B/KT is a meta-discipline, a social net & space, a tool for innovation Translational Multidisciplinary Complex Dynamic – –The value of a B/KT scientific road map is very limited but also necessary

22. B/KT scientific road map Framework model and conceptual map Knowledge base Usability & implementation Monitoring and evaluation Methods of design and analysis Procedures and best practice sets Dissemination strategies Training Support and care policy & priority setting

23. What knowledge & disciplines? Practical vs semantical knowledgePractical vs semantical knowledge Economics, Ethics, Legal, Technological, Business... Economics, Ethics, Legal, Technological, Business... Health Ontology Explicit formal specification of :Health Ontology Explicit formal specification of : – Representation of health related objects, concepts and other entities which it is assumed that exist in a given field of interest – Properties characterising these entities – Relationship between different entities

28. What is a Hospital?

30. HOSPITAL – RESIDENTIAL CARE Large variability in availability of ‘hospital non-acute care’ with lowest level in Andalucia and highest in Catalonia

31. HOW TO TRANSFER KNOWLEDGE? - - New organisation-relational strategies - New research strategies Impact analysis Knowledge Discovery from Data Expert-based Cooperative Analysis - New implementation strategies - New dissemination strategies

33. WHO TRANSFERS THE KNOWLEDGE? - - Health knowledge brokers - Champions - Interpreneurs - Intra-Interpreneurs

In the global society those who refuse to share there knowledge are socially dead The new model of society demands us to share our knowledge with others.
