EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL AGES
Do you support equal rights for all ages? Do you know that ageism hurts?
We are all aging...
…and many people in the European Union can live to be over 100 years old. Longevity should be an achievement, not a problem. A positive attitude towards the aging process will benefit everyone.
…but not entirely evenly. The older a person gets, the more upset they may become and the more inequalities they encounter along the way. Promoting healthy and active aging benefits the entire society.
…but ageism blocks full human potential and negatively impacts health and well-being. Ageism should be treated as seriously as other forms of discrimination.
Supporting the Manifesto may also change your future.
OLD…
WHICH MEANS?
Words are powerful. Words shape reality. It is up to you whether you perceive old age as full of colors or dull and sad.
AGEISM HURTS
Ageism.
Ageism is discrimination based on age. Thus, older people are often treated as weaker, dependent, defenseless, unnecessary, and even a burden on society. They experience inequalities in the workplace, social life, education, media, health care… Almost at every step of the way.
Ageism does not always result from bad will and does not have to be premeditated. It may be caused by a misunderstanding of the needs of older people.
We resist ageism and we fight for equality at any age. Support our mission!
