DEUSTO researchers present at the different events of the Bizkaia Silver Week

During the week preceding the International Day of Older Persons (22 to 28 September), Biscay welcomed the key agents of the ageing industry, researchers and institutions working on the ageing population challenge, a phenomenon that is rapidly accelerating worldwide. For the first time ever, the majority of people can expect to live into their sixties and beyond.

The Bizkaia Silver Week consisted of several events related to the Silver Economy, Active and Healthy Ageing and Demographic Change: Hack4elder advantage, the AAL Forum, the Second International Seminar on the Active Ageing Index (AAI), Covenant Assembly on Demographic Change and the Second Nagusiak International Conferences. They all aimed to establish a dialogue on the future of ageing societies in Europe.

Researchers of Deusto’s Interdisciplinary Research Platform on Ageing and Wellbeing were represented in all these events to share their knowledge and to establish bridges of collaboration.
