Abstract

Consistent with the RRR approach the purpose of the review and research question were developed collaboratively with a reference panel comprising of community health promoters, local leaders, and representatives from organisations supporting older adults in rural Kenya. The RRR process will also involve the use of content experts, who comprise academics, researchers and practitioners in the fields of geriatrics, gerontology, dementia and those employing community participatory techniques in their practice/research. The experts will be involved throughout the review, from the identification and refining of the review question to the interpretation of the evidence.
The main research questions for the RRR are as follows:
i. What contextual factors promote or hinder older adults’ social engagement in rural SSA
ii. What are the mechanisms or psychological/sociological processes that enhance or hinder social engagement among older people in rural SSA
iii. How are these mechanisms and contextual factors reflected in the Kenyan rural context?
This RRR involves the following steps and echoes the approach used elsewhere.
i. Determining and defining the purpose of the review and research question
ii. Determining relevant databases and searching for the evidence
iii. Appraising the information gathered
iv. Synthesising the information
v. Interpreting the information
