Hensikten med denne studien var å søke kunnskap om brukerne ved dagsenter i Norge, og hvilken betydning det hadde for deres hverdag at dette tilbudet eksisterte. Dybdeintervju med ni brukere av dagsenter ble foretatt. I innsamling og analyse av data ble Grounded Theory brukt. En kjernekategori kom frem: Gjennom aktivitet og sosial kontakt med andre motvirkes opplevelsen av sosiale savn og depresjoner. Funnene viste at det var mye ensomhet og isolasjon blant informantene. Dagsenter-tilbud to-tre ganger i uken ga dem mulighet for et sosialt nettverk og sosial aktivitet. Dette førte til at de følte seg friskere og ved bedre helse. De viktigste funnene var at dagsentrene representerte fellesskap med andre eldre, aktivitet, trivsel ,og omsorg.

"Volunteering and political activism are two key forms of civic engagement. There is a broad consensus that civic engagement, which often involves participation in various forms of collective action, is a cornerstone of a well-functioning democracy. Civic engagement and participation in collective action have traditionally been linked to social movements and voluntary organizations. Collective action is, however, changing as a result of societal- level processes of change, such as digitalization, the emergence of social media, individualization and globalization.This book investigates how these social changes have affected the ways individuals participate in different forms of collective action. What consequences does digitalization have for civic engagement in Norway? Is the distinction between volunteering and political activism about being wiped out? Are new organizational forms arising as a result of digitalization and individualization? Has globalization led to new forms of transnational networks? And more generally, are the traditional forms of collective action, rooted in civil society organizations, replaced by a new form of ""connective action""? Based on a variety of data sources, including survey data, case studies and in-depth interviews, the authors paint a broad picture of how different forms of collective action and civic engagement in Norway are influenced by processes of social change.Th e analyzes in this book are based on a five-year research project within the Center for Research on Civil Society and Voluntary Sector, funded by the Ministry of Culture. The book presents the project's main findings in an edited volume with contributions from an interdisciplinary team of authors."
