COST Action IS1402 on AGEISM

Jacques Delors Building, Belliardstraat 99-101, 1040 Brussels, Belgium

Towards a society for all ages: Why and how should local authorities combat ageism

For the past four years, approximately 200 researchers from 35 countries have worked together in the COST Action IS1402 on AGEISM (notoageism.com) to develop a comprehensive body of knowledge on the topic of ageism. Our collaborative work has resulted in numerous publications, a special issue and an open-access book by Springer: Contemporary Perspectives on Ageism.

Our goals for this final meeting are to:

  • Present the outcomes of the COST Action on Ageism to sub-national policymakers responsible for providing services to older citizens.
  • Increase awareness to the topic of ageism and present solutions to combat ageism at grass-root level.
  • Facilitate action to reduce ageism through sub-national policy and legislations.
