Description
Ramraj Gautam, Linda Hollis, and Jennifer Mendez study how gerontology teaching can grow more global, in a 2024 paper. Gerontology is the study of aging, and the Academy for Gerontology in Higher Education supports its teaching, mostly within the United States. Yet aging is a worldwide concern, and educators in many countries rarely share materials. The study used the UN Decade of Healthy Aging as its frame.
The team recruited twenty-six educators from different countries through aging newsletters, online groups, and conference lists. They asked what international programs in aging education look like and where joint work could grow. The goal was practical: find partners, share teaching materials, and open more chances for students to learn about aging across borders.
