ACT: ageing, communication, technologies
ACT is a research project that addresses the transformation of the experiences of ageing with the proliferation of new forms of mediated communications in networked societies.
We consider how ‘digital ageism’ – the individual and systemic biases that create forms of inclusion and exclusion that are age-related – operates in subtle ways
Through our work we are creating intergenerational connections, rethinking new media from the perspective of old age and confronting digital ageism.
