Stanford longevity summit to explore lifelong learning, future of work and aging workforce

Are you a lifelong learner? Or interested in rethinking traditional notions of work and retirement? The Stanford Center on Longevity and The Longevity Project, a group that promotes public conversation about the effects of increased life spans, will host a two-day summit at Stanford University Feb. 17-18, focusing on how to develop and support workplace talent as people live longer.  

Topics include ensuring that opportunity is not limited by age; adapting education and training to diverse careers that span decades; how employers, governments and communities can shape equitable and sustainable employment options; and how society can be redesigned to prize purpose, productivity and connection throughout longer lifespans.
