Field research in Slovenia nearly done

The field research in selected communities in Slovenia is successfully progressing and we are approaching our set goal to make 100 interviews with older men. So far we have made 86 interviews and also conducted 3 focus groups with representatives of local authorities and non-governmental organisations in both selected communities.

Some photos from our visit in Ajdovščina:

 

More than 15 Slovenian students have entered the field with old guys on Wednesday 22 March in the district community Ljubljana Bežigrad. We plan to interview more than 50 men in three weeks.
