Abstract

. In this paper, our interest has been that of identifying the possibilities of using elderly people as human resource in family and society, taking into account the present trend of doing away with the dependence state of elderly people, providing solutions to identify some active social roles that keep them active, values promoted by the theory of activity. Looking through the literature in the field, we have observed that it does not offer too many data on the social and cultural needs of retirees, on their spending free time, data which should help us find solutions to increase the quality of life. We have attempted and to a greater extent we have succeeded in promoting activities that can lead to “more active ageing”, so that these people remain active on the community and territorial level as long as possible.
