We are very excited to host The 5th European Conference on Aging & Gerontology (EGen2025), the sister conference to The Asian Conference on Aging & Gerontology (AGen), which has been held in Japan since 2015. IAFOR has joined efforts with The Bartlett Real Estate Institute at UCL, UK, the National Archive of Computerized Data on Aging (NACDA) at the University of Michigan, the IAFOR Research Centre at OSIPP, Osaka University, Japan, and academic leaders and thinkers of all disciplines from a wide range of prestigious institutions to host a conference that brings together all disciplines to discuss one of the greatest challenges humanity currently faces: the ageing of the population.
