Manifesto for the rights of older people.

The French Society of Geriatrics and Gerontology (SFGG) stands against ageism and strives to combat it in all its forms. The SFGG has warned about the persistence of age discrimination and the emergence of new forms of ageism alongside traditional stereotypes. The SFGG took a position on the occasion of the 70 ^th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in December 2018. In September 2020, the SFGG again raised the alarm, on the 20 ^th anniversary of the inclusion of the Rights of the Elderly in the European Charter. It has organised a wide-reaching communication campaign against ageism, involving learned societies of geriatrics and gerontology as well as all the major international institutions working to defend the rights of older adults.
