Abstract

In this work we start from the reality of our long-lived society, which, as it has been said for a long time, is a challenge for this 21st century, we value the consequences of the increase in life expectancy and analyze the parameters of what we understand to be a "New retirement" that requires new tools and new intervention strategies. With this base we propose a change in the processes of preparation for retirement, in the curricula of the educational programs and in the activities programmed for the development of active aging, in addition to betting on the work of the elderly people who want it and for the empowerment of entrepreneurship at the beginning of retirement.
