SUMMARY:Explore current trends\, legal protections and barriers to preventing ageism\, and how ageism impacts both older adults and youth
DESCRIPTION:According to the World Health Organization (WHO)\, “ageism is pervasive\, affects people of all ages from childhood onwards and has serious and far‐reaching consequences for people’s health\, well‐being and human rights.” \nDespite its impact on individuals and society\, ageism remains invisible — and tolerated. From access to housing\, jobs\, credit\, social services and health care to participation in all aspects of society\, discrimination based on age can have negative effects. It’s time to talk about how age biases against people young and old do damage and to find innovative solutions to this problem. \nJoin us for this virtual conversation with global experts on October 28. Panelists (see below) will explore current trends\, legal protections and barriers to preventing ageism\, and how ageism impacts both older adults and youth — with a particular focus on youth aging out of care. Innovative strategies such as intergenerational programming will also be addressed. Participants will have an opportunity to comment and ask questions. \nThis program is presented proudly in partnership with the annual Simces & Rabkin Family Dialogue on Human Rights and Equitas — International Centre for Human Rights Education.
