Resumo: | |||||||||||||
Population longevity stands as one of humanity s greatest achievements.
However, aging is often approached with concern, implying more declines and
obstacles than advancements. This work explores contemporary, optimistic views
on population aging and longevity, aiming to recognize old age as a phase that
brings solutions, progress, and flourishing to society. It starts from the premise that
the generation born between 1945 and 1964 leads a new change: being over 50 in
the 21st century. It seeks pathways to promote purposeful, productive, and
contemporary projects for long-lived lives. It embraces the idea that design is
instrumental in shaping preferred realities and that we all have the capacity to
design new longevities. Its objective is to expand opportunities for projects valuing
the benefits of longevity and serving as models for new ways of aging. Three
perspectives guide this work: positive psychology, Erik Erikson s psychosocial
development theory highlighting generativity from age 50, and the role of design
as a transformative agent. It explores themes like ageism, the silver economy, and
lifelong learning, relevant in the era of the so-called silver society megatrend.
