 Location: Oñati

Within the framework of a series of meetings on care organised by Oñati Town Council, our colleagues from Mati Instituto, Nerea Almazán and Nerea Etxaniz will be giving a talk on 9 November entitled: "Growing old in the 21st century. Models and challenges", which focuses on the diversity of realities of the elderly population that clashes with the ageist view that homogenises them.

To do so, we will talk about myths, Social Centres for the Elderly, elderly women and rethink the care we want.

The activity will start at 18:00 on the third floor of Eltzia.

Ethical aspects and the growing trend towards deinstitutionalisation and the promotion of ageing at home, a fundamental pillar of municipal services for the elderly, will also be addressed. Knowing that the experience in the model is greater in the world of centres and especially in residential centres, it is essential to address the model also at home.
