Activist ageing
text:
In the field of ageing studies, activist ageing refers to activism and research that empowers the elderly. This approach investigates how ageing is imagined, how ageism operates, and how elders respond to exclusion. Many elders, and especially women, are involved in organizations that aim to effect social change on issues related to ageing or in general. Retirement engenders a form of social exclusion. In this context becoming an activist or a volunteer represents one's agency and participation
