International Relations
The BSG is committed to fostering links with gerontology researchers working in other countries. In particular, we are hoping to instigate links with researchers working in less developed countries and we offer reduced membership fees for these individuals. We hope to be able to offer bursaries to attend the BSG conference to researchers from less developed countries in the future.
We are a member of the International Association of Gerontology, and of AGE, the European Older People’s Platform.
