Francisca fue invitada por el comité organizador de la conferencia para presentar como Keynote, siendo su presentación titulada “The Relevance of the Micro Level of Networks: A Relational Approach to Care and Social Support”.
- Abstract de la presentación: This research seeks to understand the care and support networks of older people in Santiago de Chile and how its understanding could lead to informed interventions at a micro-level. This study aims to identify/describe older people's care (perceived) and support (experienced) networks, emphasising gender and age inequalities and assessing changes in their networks. This presentation will be based on fieldwork in a community centre between May and September 2022 with three waves of interviews, collecting information on the complete network within the community centre and their egocentric networks outside the institution. In this presentation, I will share the first exploration of this data, which is divided into three main aspects. The first is the theoretical and methodological approach to care and support from a network perspective. Secondly, I will explain the care and support networks of older people. Finally, I will focus on the friendship networks of the participants to assess how relevant the changes over time are and whether other aspects influence these interpersonal relationships.
