Ageism Awareness Toolkit

November 10 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Join us on November 10th for a webinar introducing two new educational resources developed by the Canadian Coalition Against Ageism (CCAA) with stewardship and support from the International Longevity Centre Canada (ILCC) and older persons actively guiding and informing every step of the process. The Ageism Awareness Module, available in both English and French, offers people across Canada and beyond a foundational introduction to what ageism is, why it matters, how it affects us all, and how to address it. The Ageism Toolkit is a complementary resource that brings together a diverse set of tools and activities to deepen understanding of ageism, explore its impacts, and promote concrete actions to challenge it across multiple sectors of society. This interactive webinar will walk participants through both resources and demonstrate how they can be used in various settings to raise awareness, spark dialogue, and inspire lasting change.” Hosted by Elder Abuse Prevention Ontario and the Canadian Network for the Prevention of Elder Abuse and the Canadian Coalition Against Ageism (CCAA).
