Annotation | The Economic Social Research Council (ESRC) Growing Older Programme is an initiative that brings together researchers in the UK to investigate the meaning of quality of life (QoL) in old age and the factors which determine it. The Programme will provide the evidence-based research to assist policy-makers, practitioners and researchers to develop policies and practices, while challenging negative terms and images associated with the ageing population. The Programme comprises 24 projects across six topic areas: defining and measuring quality of life; inequalities in quality of life; technology and the built environment; health and productive ageing; family and support networks; and participation and activity in later life. This pack contains information about the Programme's projects. (KJ/RH). |
