Interactions
A Society for All Ages
Online Sessions
3rd Edition of the Interactions Symposium under the topic “A Society for All Ages”, this year under the format of thematic sessions, online.
The 3rd Edition of the ‘InterActions Symposium’, organized by the “Lisbon City of All Ages” of Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Lisboa, will bring together, through 16 Thematic Sessions, carried out online, a group of academics, researchers, decision-makers, entrepreneurs and other experts in the field of longevity and aging, with the purpose of debating the challenges that are posed to the promotion of a society for all ages. This will also seek to make known and promote the exchange of “best Practices” and the positioning of the different organizations, departments and services on this matter.
Thematic sessions will address a wide range of topics in the area of aging, from aspects related to the social representations of the elderly and ageing stereotypes, through the transition to retirement processes, to the challenges associated with ‘aging in place’ in the digital era. In particular, efforts will be made to highlight the housing component and the public space as handspikes to facilitate the transition from the hospital to the community with an impact on policies regarding continuity of care.
Beyond national experts of relevance in this domain, we will also have specialists at an international level that will contribute to better understand the challenges that we are faced with in the affirmation of a society for All Ages, more cohesive, justice and solidary.
