Held at Trent University in Peterborough, Canada, Take Back Aging: Power, Critique, Imagination is the second joint conference organized by ENAS and NANAS that invites researchers, writers, and scholars from all disciplines and at every career stage to share their diverse approaches to conventional fields of gerontology and critical aging studies. We wish to encourage new insights into assumed styles of life and thought, imaginative reflections on the meanings and representations of aging, challenging perspectives from cross-cultural and global experience, and activist strategies to take back aging from those powers and practices that relegate it to the margins of social existence and citizenship.

Organized over four days in May, 2019, we welcome you to explore our beautiful campus, enjoy the vibrancy of our city and forge lasting connections with colleagues from all corners of the academy.

Older Adult Network of Hamilton

Back by popular demand . . . On Wednesday, May 29, the Older Adult Network of Hamilton will carry on the tradition of bringing all seniors together at the 2019 Senior Month Kickoff!

The Older Adult Network of Hamilton (OAN) is a network of seniors and agencies working to enhance social inclusion and opportunities for seniors to connect to their communities. In 2013, the OAN introduced the Seniors Kickoff to bring back the old Seniors Carousel, an event that ran in the 1980’s through the early 2000’s to celebrate Seniors Month. In the last 6 years, the Seniors Kickoff has grown into a true community event, visited by more than 1000 seniors each year!

They will begin the day, with 80+ exhibits demonstrating health, safety & social services information, seminars, demonstrations, refreshments & live entertainment! This is a free drop-in event for seniors and does not require registration
