For years, we have shared information on Japan’s longevity society, including results of our research and events, mainly through reports and our website. To make it more flexible, accessible, and enjoyable, we have also started our blog as a new communication channel.
The International Longevity Center (ILC) Japan has challenged ageism since its foundation in 1990. We have promoted various activities to help achieve Productive Aging, the vision of the ILC Global Alliance as it aims to build a productive and creative society.
We have launched a blog in an attempt to provide information more flexibly from September,2024.
It will cover a broad range of topics, from recent experiences among Japanese seniors and what is great about Japan’s aged society to challenges and directions the country is facing and discussing. Each post will be brief and easy to read.
There are three main themes:
- Older People and Aged Society in Japan
- Cutting-edge Daily Life of the Elderly
- Supporting my fave seniors
We hope you enjoy the new blog.
