Creating healthier and more supportive local environments plays an important role in the prevention and management of type 2 diabetes and hypertension. Engaging individuals, families and schools can help foster conditions that support sustainable behaviour change and promote overall wellbeing within communities.
In May 2025, a series of community-based activities designed to raise awareness of, and encourage, healthier behaviours among diverse population groups were implemented in Bulgaria.
DigiCare4You aims to improve the early prevention and management of Type 2 Diabetes and hypertension via a community-based, person-centred solution, integrating both social and healthcare systems, supported by the use of digital tools.
As an implementation research project, DigiCare4You must follow legal and ethical standards to ensure the protection of participant data and privacy, the integrity of the research process, and compliance with relevant regulations while achieving its objectives.
To identify the strengths and limitations of the digital screening tools and gain feedback for improvements, a series of tests and online surveys were conducted in the four implementation countries.
The system was accepted by users, considered easy to learn, and received high ratings for usability, highlighting the potential of DigiCare4You’s digital tools to enhance community-based screening services for both citizens and health professionals.
