Advancing Intergenerational Learning and Living
Communities across the globe are experiencing rapid population aging.
In fact, the number of older persons worldwide is projected to more than double over the next 30 years, according to the United Nations. Our changing demographics require new ways of thinking and doing and leaders who can draw from a range of disciplines to address new challenges.
Trent’s expertise in fields such as nursing, psychology, kinesiology, and Indigenous Studies, as well as our expertise on aging in the Trent Centre for Aging & Society, culminates in globally significant research on aging, gaining us international recognition as an age-friendly university.
With your support, Trent can become a campus of care, bolster experiential learning opportunities, and attract world-class scholars to develop new best practices in senior care and respond to the opportunities and challenges of population aging. Trent’s envisioned University-Integrated Seniors Village will be a catalyst for change in our approach to aging, bringing generations together in a campus of care.
