This study, titled "Creatividad y apoyo psicosocial en adultos mayores" and conducted at the GAD Parroquial Emilio María Terán, focused on analyzing how creativity influences the psychosocial support of local older adults. The research arose from the clear need to design strategies that address common challenges faced during this life stage, such as loneliness, isolation, and the weakening of interpersonal relationships. To approach this, a qualitative study with an exploratory-descriptive scope was carried out, utilizing a semi-structured interview on "Creatividad y apoyo psicosocial en adultos mayores"previously validated by the thesis advisor and field experts as the primary data collection technique. At the theoretical level, the literature confirmed that creativity is a key factor for active aging, boosting selfesteem, and emotional management, while psychosocial support proved essential for building stable relationships. The findings demonstrated that creativity positively impacts psychosocial support among older adults, fostering social participation, emotional well-being, and community integration.

The project helped determine the influence of well-being on the social identity of older adults, where social identity is reinforced when spaces for participation and inclusion exist, where their life story, knowledge, and contributions to the community are recognized. Maintaining a positive social identity is a protective factor against psychological decline and social exclusion. Through a mixed-methods approach, the identity and well-being of older adults attending the Totoras Parish Council were studied. The research employed a qualitative approach to understand perceptions, sense of belonging, social roles, community participation, and recognition of social identity; as well as a quantitative approach to numerically measure well-being and social identity. A 12-question survey with Likert-scale response options was administered to 52 older adults in the Totoras Parish, and two social workers were interviewed using a 10-question questionnaire, allowing the study to determine the influence of well-being on the social identity of this population. The results show that well-being depends not only on physical health, but also on emotional, family, and social factors that allow older adults to maintain an active and strengthened social identity; for this reason, it is suggested that the GAD and institutions linked to the care of older adults implement comprehensive programs aimed at strengthening the emotional, social, and community well-being of this vulnerable population

The research examines the link between community participation and sense of belonging in older adults residing in the parish of Huambaló, Pelileo canton, Tungurahua province, given the context of rapid population aging. Consequently, community participation becomes a key element in promoting active aging, strengthening support networks, and reducing social isolation. This study adopts a purely quantitative approach and, to this end, we used the Community Social Support Questiomnaire (CAS-C), which has been specifically validated for older adults. The sample consisted of 92 older adults and was extracted through stratified proportional sampling from six communities in the parish. This tool studied integration, community participation, and the perception of community support. The information obtained in this study indicates that participants are beginning to identify that community members treat them kindly, have modified their policies on accessibility to community spaces, and have received comments highlighting the positivity of their participation. However, elements such as information, activities to offer, or infrastructure to complement transportation elements and sufficient willingness to collaborate are lacking. These factors are what shape the motivation and sustainability of participation. This demonstrates that there is a direct relationship between community participation and a sense of belonging, as older adults who participate more actively develop greater self-esteem, social integration, and a greater purpose in life. In addition, community participation improves emotional health, reduces loneliness, and generates more meaningful relationships. Intervention strategies were organized by results with the aim of enhancing the social inclusion of older adults. The research concludes that promoting the participatory role of older adults is of great importance and improves quality of life and overall well-being, as well as helping to develop inclusive and integrated communities.
