Social Determinants of Active Ageing Building Resilience and Empowerment: Empowerment

Social Determinants of Active Ageing - Building Resilience and Empowerment addresses major challenges identified in the revised active ageing framework introduced by the World Health Organization and the International Longevity Centre - Brazil. The authors present studies focused on key social factors influencing active ageing, such as education, social support, social exclusion, and social isolation and loneliness. The scope of this collection extends to the global, national, regional, and local implementation of age-specific and intergenerational initiatives aimed at achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The volume comprises chapters that offer both research and practical recommendations encompassing diverse disciplines such as demography, critical studies, educational gerontology, geropsychology, gerontechnology, geographical gerontology, longevity studies, public health, social policy, social work, and sociology. This book is a valuable resource for academic and professional communities focused on social theories of ageing, as well as for those involved in public services and policymaking related to ageing. Furthermore, the volume serves as a support tool for students, practitioners, and individuals working in government, business, and non-governmental organizations.
