Impressions after the desk research in Lithuania
The Lithuanian report for the compendium is based on the desk research of 21 reference source and interviews of 14 older persons. Although the word ageism was not directly used by the interviewees, dis-criminative aspects are implicit-ly revealed by other words: “exclusion”, “lack of tolerance”, “indifference”, “rudeness”, “deprivation”. Work on the re-port, the interviews, discus-sions with colleagues and stakeholders sparkled interest in the findings and next steps of the project, so everybody is looking forward to the project outputs that will follow.
