ESRC Connecting Generations featured in Re:Action Magazine

The latest edition of Re:Action Magazine showcases some of the research undertaken by the ESRC Connecting Generations team, including articles on:

Employment and caring responsibilities in later life;
Kinship modelling; and
Unmet care needs.

It also celebrates the University’s long-standing excellence in research on ageing, considering how our ageing population has implications for everything from the labour force to healthcare, family life and the economy.

Connecting Generations researchers are investigating how life events affect health, living standards, social networks and personal resilience. The financial, emotional and practical support different generations provide for each other during the life course often go hand-in-hand with major life events. Transitions such as leaving home, having children, becoming a homeowner, entering and leaving work, continuing to live independently, or moving into residential care are all affected.
