Dignity and older europeans

Objective

Using philosophical and empirical methods, this study will clarify the widely used but equivocal concept of Human Dignity to enable it to be applied to the every day lives of older Europeans who are particularly vulnerable to the denial of dignity. The project will draw directly on the experiences of older people, health and social care professionals and members of the general public in 6 differing European countries, clarifying the cultural, linguistic, socio-economic, political and biographical factors which influence the definition and expression of human dignity. The study will make recommendations for a wide range of policy formulation. Multi-disciplinary, cross-national educational materials will be developed for initial and continuing education of health and social care professionals as will a multi-lingual, interactive web site to enable pan-European participation and collaborations.
