Reframing Ageing - Let's Talk About Ageism |
Office of the Seniors Advocate Survey on Ageism
The World Health Organization defines ageism as “…the stereotypes (how we think), prejudice (how we feel) and discrimination (how we act) towards others or ourselves based on age.”
Studies on ageism report that it occurs most often in the workplace, health care, the media and the legal system.
The Office of the Seniors Advocate wants to hear from British Columbians about their perceptions and experiences with ageism, particularly related to seniors. We want to know more about how people feel ageism is impacting their lives to inform future work of our office.
