Abstract
This Chapter aims to contribute to the deepening of scientific knowledge in the area of active and healthy aging, considering as fundamental the protection and promotion of the rights of the elderly and the safeguarding of human dignity, with a purpose to their effective implementation. In this perspective, on the one hand, we recognize that global and universal demographic aging is increasingly active and participatory in society. On the other hand, we assist in situations of profound vulnerability and risk, through the phenomenon of violence against the elderly, which implies their detection, prevention, investigation, and adoption of social policies and legislation.
