Interviewing & Stories
2022
This project looks at why younger people worry about ageing by interviewing four different age groups and presenting their stories in a book. It also shows how our bodies change over time, hoping to help people better understand older adults and take steps to improve their own ageing experience while creating a more age-friendly environment together.
