There are many ways to age, just as there are many ways to live when younger. “Aging literacy” is a thing. How do we educate our society today about the needs of current older adults? Facts, not myths, are needed. Data is key for evidence-based conversations and updates. Here’s a related question: How do we raise future centenarians to exist in a world 🌎 where more people will live to be 💯? Thinking on generational rights, rewards, and responsibilities will have to shift accordingly with lived experience. One small step: I’m routinely showing varied photos of older adults in my writing, to illustrate that there is no basis to treat age 55+ as one homogenous group with assumed or stereotyped needs. Aging is individual. Shout-out for future-forward topics in the Pass It On Network’s monthly global call, co-hosted by Moira Allan in Paris. Your thoughts? 🔮 Kim Anderson, NDCCDE, CDR Sara Breindel Jan Golden Doug Dickson #WednesdayWisdom #futureofwork #OlderAdults #ageism

Not just today but celebrate her everyday !!! The truth is that we have the power to change through our ‘choices’. It is not just about one day where we celebrate women, but little efforts every day by each one of us that will make a real difference. It will take courage each day to defeat the deep-seated conditioning in our heads and be able to make a safer, more inclusive, and empowered space for girl children and everyone alike. Cultivate equal respect and integrity towards girls and women, which is the pre-requisite regardless of gender, age, caste, class, or region. Foster independent thought and expression through access to education, awareness, and financial literacy. Ensure access to good (physical, mental, menstrual, and emotional) health resources and facilities. Remember, little yet thoughtful gestures are one of the most powerful languages. Take a stand against child labour or marriage if you encounter such episodes. Let’s empower and celebrate her every day, and carve a path towards an inclusive, equitable and safe world for all!

Have you considered hosting a workshop on ageism in your organisation? If you haven’t, you might want to look into it- particularly if you employ older Australians or have clients, customers or users that are older Australians. The stats show that ageism is one of the most prevalent and tolerated forms of prejudice. But a new report from the @Australian Human Rights Commission shows that it might be one of the easiest to shift. The Commission surveyed aged care and community workers about their attitudes to ageing before and after doing an educational workshop, and the results were very encouraging. Read the new report ‘Changing perspectives: testing an ageism intervention’: https://lnkd.in/gbMkC6t5

Thrilled and honored, I returned to Princeton yesterday, a place close to my heart where I celebrated a personal and professional milestone. Princeton University's Program in Gender and Sexuality Studies invited me to deliver a lecture titled “Throw Down and Haunt!!!: The Spectre of Disability at the Pennhurst Asylum." In an invigorating session attended by a diverse audience of faculty, students, staff and members of the greater Princeton community, we delved deep into the shadows of history and contemporary society, examining the persistence of medical violence in custodial institutions for disabled people. Taking the Pennhurst Asylum--a former state institution turned haunted attraction--as my site of study, the talk explored the haunting specter of institutional violence, shedding light on the complexities that allow such injustices to persist in plain sight. This discussion was not just an academic exercise but a call to action. By understanding the frameworks that sustained these practices at Pennhurst, we can better equip ourselves, policymakers, and disability scholar-activists to foster effective, proactive changes. My goal? To confront and eradicate the ongoing institutionalization and marginalization of disabled people both in the United States and across the globe. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to share my research and contribute to vital conversations around disability policy and law, bioethics and biomedicine, critical disability studies, and performance studies. It was a remarkable experience engaging with individuals who share a commitment to making a tangible difference in our world. Let's continue to push boundaries, challenge norms, and build a more equitable society. Your thoughts, feedback, and collaborations toward this journey are warmly welcomed. #PrincetonUniversity #DisabilityPolicy #DisabilityLaw #CriticalDisabilityStudies #PerformanceStudies #MedicalHumanities #Bioethics #Biomedicine #GenderAndSexualityStudies #DisabilityRights #DisabilityJustice #MedicalViolence #Institutionalization #PublicSpeaking

And first they came for the trans kids. There is a concerning trend happening in Canada where provinces including New Brunswick, Saskatchewan, and now potentially Ontario are resticting the safety and well-being of trans kids. This is an intentional campaign by far right groups to errode the rights of trans people through an argument of 'parents rights.' We know clearly from research that affirming trans children is the way of supporting their safety and lives. Trans youth are at one of the highest rates of suicide and positions like this puts trans children and youth at risk of suicide, self-injury, and other harm. This is part of a very intentional campaign against trans lives. Though some of these bills can be challenged on human rights law that takes time and we need to advocate in the meantime to prevent the further expansion of these hateful laws. Protect trans kids. https://lnkd.in/gCRtamee
