Dear colleagues,
Should you be interested in attending, places are still avialable for the conference 'Portraying Ageing: Cultural Assumptions and Practical Implications' which is being held at the British Library on the 28th April 2014.
The conference aims to bring together experts from different backgrounds to share and discuss, from a variety of theoretical and practical viewpoints, the many ways in which age and ageing are portrayed and understood. It will explore how insights from research can be translated into policy and practice, and show how interdisciplinary thinking is both theoretically interesting and practically relevant.
Speakers will include Professor Julia Twigg, from the University of Kent at Canterbury; Dr Debora Price from the Institute of Gerontology at King’s College, London; and Angus Hanton, co-founder of the Intergenerational Foundation. The keynote address will be given by Professor Lynne Segal.
Event Partners: The School of Language, Linguistics and Film – Queen Mary, University of London; Centre for Policy on Ageing
