Mission

to contribute to a better life for all older people by promoting critical knowledge and understanding of education and learning in later life

Key Aim

to bring together the best of international research, scholarship and practice on education, learning and ageing in a critical but accessible manner

Purpose and scope

There are other published journals concerned with ageing, older people and society; they sometimes publish articles on older people’s learning and education. But they do not focus on learning in later life and they do not contain the unique critical blend of research and scholarship, and the consideration of their implications, which is to be found in the International Journal of Education and Ageing. This Journal is characterised by new thinking, perspectives and challenges; high standards of critical scholarship; application of research to practice and policy; interest in all disciplines and a determination to be international in both content and audience.

The International Journal of Education and Ageing aims to be accessible to a wide readership. Its international mission and concerns are very clear. It is focused on securing contributors and readers from across the world. In the first nine issues of the Journal contributors from 17 countries outside the United Kingdom, in five continents, were published.

Format

The International Journal of Education and Ageing is published in print format by the Association for Education and Ageing in volumes of three issues per volume. Normally there are four articles in each issue as well as a substantial editorial, book and media reviews and wide-ranging international notes on research and practice. There is an emphasis on articles being readable and accessible. Articles are peer-reviewed and editors are prepared to advise colleagues who want to offer an article but who are not experienced in publishing at this level. 

Articles in current and back issues of the Journal are available in PDF format to current subscribers only by logging into their account and clicking on the 'Journals' link at the top right of the page. Please login here
