Aging in Data

How does an era of unprecedented data-gathering affect how we grow old in our communities? 

Aging in Data brings together an interdisciplinary network of scholars from ten countries, community-based activists and organizations. We research how age studies intersect with communications, media studies and critical data studies, and explore how an era of unprecedented digital data-gathering impacts and governs how we grow old in our communities. Our shared commitment to social justice brings us to articulate an impactful, innovative, multi-methodological and collaborative agenda with communities of older adults that respond to pressing societal needs.
