Contemporary societies are undergoing profound changes in their structure and functioning, bringing with them new risks, complexities, and uncertainties. The older generation is growing in number and becoming increasingly diverse, and it now faces new problems, challenges, responsibilities, and opportunities. Many of its members refuse to be ¿left out¿ and want to pool their energy, health, motivation, and experience to participate in and contribute to the search for new forms of democracy, civil society, and sustainable (competitive and collaborative) development, as well as to the creation of greater value. Note: All programs will be tailored to the students¿ preferences.
