Abstract

This article aims to present a series of practical activities for healthy aging, based on the perspective of Paulo Freire and active aging policy (WHO). The reported activities were carried out during the author's doctoral research, and subsequently reapplied in other contexts and with different groups of elderly. The activities presented will also be discussed in light of other scientific works. Thus, it is expected that these experiences can contribute to the field of research and practice in the area of ​​applied gerontology.
