eldery woman: existent or non existent? Project concerning the creation of social-agogic impulses to improve the participation in the community development and the emancipation movements.

    Project Details

    Description

    Research at the VUB proves that this elderly fraction of the population is
    subject of discrimination, because of their age (ageism) as well as their
    sex (sexism). Their status of social outlaws shows in less particpation
    in the community development and the emancipation movements. The proposed
    research project is very useful to enlarge our knowledge of this group in
    the society. Following the aims of the IV World Conference (Peking) the
    Flemish policy is changing to more active participation of the elderly
    women.
    The development of social-agogic impulses is desirable. With this project
    our goal would be to develop even more social-agogic impulses to improve
    the participation of this enlarging group of our population. This would
    increase the quality of meso-level provisions and stimulate their
    individual well-being.
