It examines whether seniors live in a healthy manner and how they can best be motivated to do so. The theoretical part of the thesis deals with the definition of the term "healthy lifestyle". Inasmuch as the thesis deals with seniors, it was also necessary to define the terms "senior" and "active aging". The thesis refers to current demographic developments, where the terms health support and social marketing are described. The practical portion deals with research performed on a sample of 105 Czech seniors aged 60 and over. In its conclusion, based on the barriers found, the thesis proposes a social marketing programme to improve the lifestyle of Czech senior citizens, thereby also improving their quality of life.
