Abstract

The SFGG (French Society of geriatrics and gerontology) stands up against ageism and fights it in all its forms of expression. The SFGG warns about the persistence of age discrimination and the emergence of new forms of ageism alongside traditional stereotypes. The SFGG has taken a position on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in December 2018. In September 2020, the SFGG is again raising the alarm on the 20th anniversary of the inclusion of the Rights of the Elderly in the European Charter. It is organising a wide communication campaign against ageism, involving all the learned societies of geriatrics and gerontology as well as all the major international institutions that defend the rights of older adults.
