Consuelo Moreno, our executive director, denounces that our society has normalized age discrimination, especially with respect to the elderly, in a letter published in the newspaper La Tercera. “Unfortunately, it operates in a way legitimized by custom,” she says in it.

While discrimination against women is called misogyny or machismo, or against a person of another race, it is called racism; discrimination in the case of older people it is called ageism.
