The knowledge, skills and experiences we have acquired throughout our lives allow us, as we age, to achieve a greater capacity to enjoy the present moment and to be teachers to the new generations when we can transmit knowledge by participating socially. Having the opportunity to share with other people ensures that we live in an active and healthy way.

Active ageing is “the process of optimising opportunities for health, participation and security in order to improve the quality of life of people as they age”, defines the OMS. Feeling useful, at every stage of our life, brings us rewards that favor our mental, physical and emotional health by sharing experiences and knowledge with others.

Governments, by promoting public policies that promote equity and a dignified life, not only for each of our stages of life, can help ensure that all “generations have equitable access to health and social care, lifelong learning and opportunities to contribute,” says the United Nations Organization (ONU).

It is necessary that we all work for an extension of participatory life that is not only strengthened or permitted by institutions but by the social and human conscience of each person for the development of our being, at every stage of life and promote cooperation between different generations by sharing skills, values ​​and experiences.

We must give importance to self-care and promote laws and personal attitudes towards aging in order to support life projects that are valid for each of us and the people around us. With insurance SURA We can continue to enjoy every moment of our lives and share the experiences we acquire, our affection or the knowledge that allows us to take care of ourselves individually and collectively.
