Elder people are an increasingly important part of our societies. However, they are often invisible and we have many prejudices that we are not aware of. Inés Castro Almeyra shows us a reality that requires urgent actions so that we can all live fully until the end of our lives. Inés holds a degree in Political Science from the University of Buenos Aires. She completed her Master's Degree in Social Policies at the London School of Economics with a Chevenning grant from the British Government. For 20 years, she worked on issues of institutional strengthening and fund raising in social-oriented organizations such as Junior Achievement, CIPPEC and Chequeado. At the Fundación Navarro Viola she discovered her passion and commitment to issues related to old people. She is the co-founder of Nau Experiencias, a platform of creative experiences designed especially for an audience over 50 years.
