The state of loneliness in Slovakia with the Disconnect project

Loneliness is often invisible. It hides in plain sight—in crowded buses, quiet homes, and sometimes even within our closest relationships. However, its effects are profound and they influence both our mental and physical health.

In Slovakia, the problem of loneliness is increasingly being recognized as a serious public health issue. The Disconnect project aims to comprehensively explore loneliness and social isolation in Slovakia in an interdisciplinary manner. In this show, Patrícia Polakovičová talked to Jakub Januška, a researcher and doctor from the Psychiatric Clinic at the Slovak Medical University.
