La precariedad de los adultos mayores y los vacíos legales que los desamparan

Abstract

In the present investigation, the objective is to intimidate the Colombian state by the public policies that are in front of the elderly, showing the shortcomings that exist in these. For the above, the definition of "elderly", "old age", "little old man" "aging" and "older adult" according to government entities will be evidenced. Taking into account the foregoing, testimonies from bystanders, older adults and different entities will be used; also of news, notes and reports from public and private entities, to give context on the current situation of the laws that protect the elderly. Therefore, we will work with a private gerontological home, to obtain the different life testimonies of the elderly, as well as their caregivers, relatives and administrative staff of the place. The aforementioned will contain videos and images of the gerontological, as well as the testimonies to create an audiovisual product, showing the little force that the State exercises in the violation of the laws that protect people who are in a state of advanced old age.
