Resilience and Ageing cover

Resilience is an area of growing interest within critical gerontology and policy agendas. In this book, researchers from multiple disciplines critically reflect on ways in which cultural engagement can develop social connectivity and improve resilience for older people, and how the built environment, community living, cultural participation, lifelong learning, and artist-led interventions can all help people to thrive in older age.

“Resilience is an area of growing interest within critical gerontology and policy agendas and in this book, academics with a wide range of expertise critically reflect on ways in which cultural engagement can encourage older people to thrive.” Simon Evans, University of Worcester
