Gerontology : Scientific Study of process and problems
of old age.
Perspectives of American Association of Retired Persons (AARP)
regarding the future of Gerontology are :
- Gerontology has a bright and vast future in upcoming times
because demographic trend shows that right now america has
expansive population pyramid (in which adults are more) which in
future turn into constrictibe pyramid (in which elderly population
is more)
- Percentage of older people amd people with long life is
increasing in respect of total population, so there is lot more to
study on old age.
- Gerontology is multidisciplinary study so it require large
manpower for the access of data and projects for the study
- In future as we know older people are going to increase so we
have to take care of them amd should made services and facilities
according to their needs, which is made possible by
Gerontology
- Gerontology can help governments to make decisions and policies
including the interests of older people's too
