The questions of time and ageing and their roles in the formation of public policy are multifaceted. Societal and personal experiences of ageing are impacted by policy, and policy formation is (or, perhaps, should be) impacted by time. This event series will explore these interconnected issues of time, ageing and public policy in an Irish context.
Part Two: Time and temporality in policy making.
This second event complements the issue of ageing by considering time and temporality in policy making—balancing the short-term, election-cycle policy promises with the long-term process of policy development impact and thinking about how future generations can be ‘present’ in contemporary policy development.
