A Study on the Current Situation of Geriatric Education in China under the Vision of Lifelong Education

Abstract

Lifelong education is an important direction in the development of education in today's world, and is of great significance in promoting social development, even affecting the stability of the social structure. Within China, with the development of education, the idea of developing education for the elderly is becoming more and more popular. The worsening problem of ageing has led to increasing attention being paid to education for the elderly. Although education for the elderly in China has achieved relatively satisfactory results under the leadership of the Government, it still faces difficulties and challenges of one kind or another. How to better develop geriatric education and solve the problems encountered in the process of carrying out geriatric education has become an urgent task. This paper will take China's geriatric education as the research object, and analyse and elaborate on the current situation of China's geriatric education, the necessity of carrying out geriatric education, the problems and solutions of carrying out geriatric education, and the outlook for future development of geriatric education, etc., to illustrate that under the background of lifelong education, China's geriatric education has begun to see the results of its development, but there is still much that can be improved.
