IMPACT
Numerous measures of IN-HABIT’s positive impact were obtained, including a high agreement from participants that the proposed VIS improved Inclusive Health and Wellbeing, in 12 specific dimensions:
• Increased the extent of the social interaction between people in the city/neighbourhood Improved the quality of social interaction between people in the city/neighbourhood
• Contributed to improve willingness of people to engage in similar social activities
• Endowed the local community with the capability to propose more inclusive activities
• Helped reducing the discrimination of any kind (gender based, ethnicity based, age based, etc.)
• Provided opportunities to foster the organization of similar social activities
• Has been associated with a positive and emotional feeling within the community
• Has been associated with physical wellness
• Represents a solution for the long-lasting positive physical and/or emotional feeling
These 12 dimensions were assessed by means of a survey delivered in all four cities. Both median and mode responses were found to be between 4 and 5 (on a 5-point scale) for all items.
