Laughter for everyone!

The project Laughter for everyone! of the HAHAHA Institute, which seeks to promote access to culture, art and citizenship for the elderly public in ILPIs and hospitals through artistic interventions, needed to reinvent itself during the Covid-19 pandemic. Such an encouraging work and of great relevance for a population already fragile and/or in a difficult time due to the onset of some disease needed to be rethought. For 8 years Instituto HAHAHA has been working bringing joy, laughter and providing a rich exchange of experiences between the actors involved in person in hospitals and ILPIs. The moment was of great challenge, but Instituto HAHAHA continues to bring joy, entertainment and culture to the elderly and in hospital, also in a virtual way. They provide this with the possibility of serving not only the elderly population, in some channels it is available to the entire population, helping to reduce the damage caused by social isolation and also social and health vulnerabilities.
