Older citizens and people with special social problems in the district of Pankow 2003
This edition presents the results of an empirical study conducted in 2003.
This study, commissioned by the Pankow District Office of Berlin, focused on
senior citizens and independent senior citizens' meeting places.
The analysis also took into account people who are currently in particularly problematic
life situations and who visit and use appropriate facilities in the district.
This study is part of one of IFAD's research priorities. Since the beginning of
the 1990s, empirical findings have been delivered and socio-demographically
relevant problems of specific social groups and strata of the population have
been analysed within this research field.
The relevant data, statistics and research results are made available to local
politicians and the public.
In addition to a special evaluation of individual senior citizens' meeting places
or day-care centres for people with special social problems, this research report
also evaluates survey results that provide a general view of leisure interests,
living conditions, value orientations, political understanding and general allow
respondent sensitivity. In this documentation, IFAD for the first time examined the
living situation of people living in institutions for the homeless or for overcoming
of alcohol problems seek help.
