Beschreibung
The aging population is one of the significant demographic trends of today, which is becoming a problem of the 21st century on a global scale. People over 65 make up approximately 15% of the population of the Czech Republic, and their number will slowly but surely increase. Therefore, the urgency of the demand for lifelong learning and education is rising. The book provides answers to a number of questions related to educational interventions focused on this age group, such as: • Who is actually the actor in senior education? • What should senior education specifically look like? • What are the specifics of this education? • Are there any limits to senior education? • What are the functions, goals, and means of senior education? The publication is primarily intended for lecturers, adult and senior educators, animators, activation and outreach workers, professionals in the fields of andragogy, social work, geragogy, gerontology, pedagogy, especially social pedagogy and special pedagogy, including students of these fields.
