In the first half of this year Salomé Araújo Martins and Kevin Lee set out on a journey to explore if Solhemmet's philosophy on retirement could fit into the Portuguese society.
After a summer of visiting municipality after municipality, we are seeing a glimpse of an answer.
Portugal is home to one of the oldest populations in Europe. It is a fantastic country with fantastic architecture, history and nature. But it has a problem.
A growing population of elders who require more and more care, requires a new way approach.
Salomé, herself from Portugal, was featured in a recent interview on how Solhemmet and the Swedish mentality could help these growing concerns from both a national and local government perspective.
