It is necessary to integrate seniors in a learning environment, providing them with knowledge, self-esteem and personal fulfilment in addition to social participation.
This is the approach proposed by the World Health Organization (WHO), in the World report on Aging and Health (2015), when it states that learning is one of the keys to functional capacity.
In the present moment, it is essential to create a new awareness about the challenges that seniors face and an adaptation through changing behaviours and attitudes.
With this in mind, on June 5th Elderly Care held another session with coach Nadiya Manji, with the theme: “Balancing physical, mental and spiritual after COVID-19”, on My Golden Events.
Acquiring knowledge streamlines, invigorates and plays a significant role in the healthy aging of seniors, improving their cognitive skills.
Lifelong learning is a pillar of active aging.
