SHINE, AFEdemy and the Nursing School of Coimbra are organising a conference on November 8th and 9th. During those days, we will talk about Smart Healthy Age-friendly Environments and Social Innovation!
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.
Negative attitudes about ageing and older age make life on average 7,5 years shorter. Our newest Erasmus+ project Smart Against Ageism (SAA) focuses on fighting ageism!
