1st Series on EOL (End of life) Care discussion – Think philosophy of life and death
date : 6/28/2013
Japan will experience an aging society by 2035 as one in three people in Japan will be over the age of 65. Japan will be the first country in human history to experience such a phenomenon, hence, it is Japan’s duty to ask questions; “How to Age and How to Die” and “The Ideal Ways of End of Life Care .” The aging issue has been known as a forbidden topic that cannot be discussed in the public but it is time to change. In the light of this, this consecutive seminar will aim to hold a discussion that allows young professionals from economic, medical, academic, media, legislative and administrative sectors to suggest action plans.
