Abstract

This book explores the topic of elder abuse from the perspective of four countries, Finland, Ireland, Italy and Romania. The book represents one of a number of resources being developed as part of an Erasmus Plus funded project called Socio-Drama Tackling Ageism, Preventing Abuse (S.T.Age).The main objective of S.T.Age is to design an education programme that will provide new learning opportunities in the field of human rights of older people to prevent elder abuse. Five organisations have come together to develop this project. Age Action (Ireland); Anziani e non solo, (Italy); Asociatia HABILITAS Centru de Resurse si Formare Profesionala (Romania) and Suvanto – For a Safe Old Age (Finland) are all non-governmental organisations working to improve the lives of older people; the fifth partner the Gaiety School of Acting, Ireland, a not-for-profit theatre school, is involved in developing programmes that address social issues through drama.
