Ageing@ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ is a group of researchers recognised by the ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ that bring together academics from different social science disciplines interested in one of the worlds key challenges, namely population ageing together with inequality and climate change.
The group applies a global perspective to healthy ageing and population ageing, focusing on high-, low- and middle-income countries. We aim to enhance collaboration between academics and early career researchers at ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳, and to coordinate and streamline ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳’s contribution to this area.
We are pleased to invite submissions for a Workshop on Ageing Research at the ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳, organised by the newly created Population and Healthy Ageing Group (PHAG; see more information below). The workshop aims to bring together academics, early carer researchers and PhD students working on ageing at ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ across all disciplines and approaches globally. We take a broad approach to the term ageing, and this workshop will be an opportunity to identify synergies in research and build collaborations.
We are a truly global group in terms of outreach and cover a wide array of areas that includes behavioural aspects of active ageing; formal and informal social care contracts; life course approaches to ageing; societal influences on the individual ageing process; intergenerational benefits of ageing well; intergenerational inequalities and old age poverty; critical perspectives of ageing; financial challenges; and wellbeing effects of retirement, among many others.
