Civil Society Organizations’ Discourse and Interventions to Promote Active Ageing in Relation with the Quality of Life in Latin-America
2021
Introduction: Active ageing and quality of life are concepts not easily defined and implemented and assumed in official and public discourse as goals to be achieved for a society that wishes to improve large groups lives such as older persons. Neither official documents defining public policies nor social discourses offer commonly accepted rules for assessing them. This chapter specifically aims at examining how civil society organizations (CSOs) position active ageing and quality of life in their policy documents as tools to exert political pressure in the design of three fundamental dimensions of public policy: health, financial security and physical and social environment.
