Chapter 1 Perspectives on Elderly Life-Long Learning in Asia Pacific Region -- Chapter 2 Aging in Thailand: Critical Issues in the 21st Century -- Chapter 3 Community-based Support System for the Aged: Case of Kobe City -- Chapter 4 Education Issues for Elderly Persons in Korea -- Chapter 5 Is there an Elderly’s Learning Paradigm Shift in Asia-Pacific Region? -- Chapter 6 Manpower Planning and Lifelong Learning in Singapore: Implications for Older Workers -- Chapter 7 Equity in Health Services for Ageing -- Chapter 8 Lifelong Learning for Senior Citizens in Thailand -- Chapter 9 Active later life learners, sustainability advocacy and the emerging global role of seniors as 21st Century ‘tribal elders’ -- Chapter 10 The Development and Implementation of Senior Learning Program in Taiwan and Some Reflections -- Chapter 11 Repeating successful Silver College Through Elderly Empowerment in Indonesia -- Chapter 12 Life-Long Learning in Hong Kong -- Chapter 13 Concluding Chapter – Holistic Approaches for Elderly Life-Long Learning in the Asia Pacific Region and Future Directions.

In many countries across the Asia Pacific region, people are adapting to the new demographic shift, but there is nonetheless much concern. This book documents the various educational approaches rendered by both public and private sectors to enable elderly individuals in their own countries to re-engage in society more inclusively, to stay longer in the labour market, and to become less dependent on the state or their families. In order to produce active, healthy, and productive aging citizens, the experiments showcased by this book highlight how adaptive action is needed across many policy areas, with emphasis on shaping structural differences in the composition and organisation of higher education systems that can better foster lifelong learning among elderly citizens. The book is a great venue to underline the interplay of the theory and practices of vastly complex challenges.
