Today is Ageism Awareness Day. Ageist attitudes are deeply embedded and frequently unnoticed but are underestimated in terms of harm for older people.

The project is a creative approach to challenging ageist views and challenging how we perceive ‘old’. We held workshops in partnership with Celebrate Ageing where older people were invited to come along and have discussions around combatting internalised ageism, as well as documenting their portraits and messages about ageing.

You can view the images and the wisdom that the participants shared on our website here: https://adaaustralia.com.au/old-is-beautiful/
