Every year, everwhere, October: the longevity month!

Every year, the International Longevity Alliance celebrates the longevity month – that starts with the official United Nations International Day of Older Persons : October 1st.

Let us make the Longevity Month on October –
Let us hold meetings and other events globally!

The first day is especially significant as, on that day, we have an excellent opportunity to link in the public mind the issue of AGING with the issue of ANTI-AGING research that is probably the only means to truly address and ameliorate the problem of aging.

On that month you can do several things:

1. Organize pro-longevity meetings in your area!

The range of the meetings (conferences/ seminars/ study groups/ public demonstrations) can range from large scale, to just meeting with a few friends. Every kind and scope of activity is precious.

Please report about your plans to hold or participate in such a meeting.

2. During the meeting you can in fact establish a pro-longevity group in your area!

3. Physical meetings are best, but if impossible – organize on-line meetings, in as diverse media as possible.

4. Prepare special publications and publish them in your blogs and other online resources.

5. Engage mainstream public media! The fact that this is a now traditional international month, and the fact that such pro-longevity events are being organized all across the world – gives you an excellent opportunity to directly approach representatives of public media and offer them to cover the topic. This is an opportunity that should not be missed.

6. In the same way, you can approach politicians, public officials and other decision makers in your area. Point them to that day and the international organization around it, and attempt to raise their interest in the issue of longevity research.

Their is still time before the end of October. Still, with some minimal effort we can create a series of highly influential and positive events.

If you would like to organize or participate in a meeting or other activity on or around that day, please contact us directly via emails below or make suggestions via the facebook group below. A report from different countries will later be made.

Thank you!
