Researchers will explore how environmental factors impact healthy aging at a seminar hosted by the University of Lorraine in Metz, France, on Tuesday, January 27, 2026, from 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM. Understanding the interplay between our surroundings and well-being as we age is increasingly important for public health initiatives.
The event, titled “Healthy Longevity: An Approach Through Environmental Gerontology,” will be available for both in-person and remote attendance, but registration is required.
Organized as part of the interdisciplinary LIFE TRAVEL program, the seminar aims to define and investigate environmental gerontology. Experts will discuss how demographic shifts can be supported by changes to both the physical and social environments, fostering health, autonomy, and quality of life for an aging population.
The gathering will bring together researchers from various disciplines focused on adapting communities to meet the needs of a growing senior population.
Organizers encourage attendees to share information about the event within their networks.
