Language and images convey meaning, which feed assumptions and judgements that can lead to ageism. The way we frame communications also affects how people think, feel and act towards different age groups. This short guide, produced as a part of the Global Campaign to Combat Ageism, aims to help you improve your communication efforts by avoiding ageism in the messages and images you use.
This guide is for everyone, designed to help you avoid ageism in all of your communications whether it is with your friends, family, and colleagues, or in broader settings such as school, policy-making, media, and more.
