A silent yet devastating form of discrimination that affects older adults, limiting their rights and diminishing their role in society: this is ageism. In this insightful essay, Marco Trabucchi delves deep into the phenomenon, revealing how prejudice and stereotypes fuel social exclusion. Through critical analysis and concrete proposals, he offers ways to challenge this mindset and build a more inclusive society, where ageing is experienced with dignity and respect.
