Description :
UNO students enrolled in Lyn Holley's GERO 4480/8486: Comparative Global Aging, will meet with a same-country elder and together carry out a systematic brief life review interview which is the foundation for writing for the elder and their family a brief life story. The student and elder survey the elder's neighborhood and assess its "age friendliness". The student develops recommendations for improvements and develops a presentation about the project that describes improvements needed and justifies the recommendations made.
