Bildung und aktives Altern: Bewegung im Ruhestand

Abstract: The percentage of older people in the population is increasing. In the year 2060, one third of Germany's and Austria's populations will be over 65 years old. This will be a particular challenge for institutes offering further education. The empirical study "Education and Active Ageing" looks at the educational behaviour of older people and highlights the correlation between education and social inclusion. It addresses the factors that contribute positively to learning processes in the elderly and the way education impacts factors like health and social and political commitment. Best practice projects offer adult education providers suggestions for the planning and implemention of educational events. The authors Franz Kolland is Professor of Sociology at the Social Science Faculty of the university of Vienna. Pegah Ahmadi is a research fellow working on projects of geragogics and life course studies
