About Health, Aging & Society
About Health, Aging & Society
We live in an era when health and aging greatly impact, and present unique challenges and opportunities for, societies around the world.
Significant challenges exist in addressing health, social care, welfare, and accommodation needs of increasing numbers and proportions of older people, while older people themselves face new economic and political circumstances.
Meanwhile, emerging positive activities and cultures of aging have radically changed capacities, experiences, and expectations in later life.

My health studies courses have certainly expanded my worldview on a personal and academic level. Not only have I gained a deeper understanding over how closely our health is connected to our location in society, both biographically and geographically, I have been supplied with numerous reference points that highlight the significance of these relationships locally and globally, specifically in connection to our health and well-being. I feel well prepared to pursue any area of interest that pertains to health and/or healthcare related issues.
