Description

A response to the prevailing societal narrative of AGE as DEFICIT. In reality, people experience both positive and negative changes in the later stage of life; and accepting AGE as both ASSET and DEFICIT is important in achieving well-being across the longer life course. In this presentation, I will review the AGE as Deficit and AGE as Asset perspectives and explain why the full story of aging includes both. Interpersonal and internalized ageism must be confronted to ensure accurate perceptions of older adults and the well-being for all of us.
