About the Journal
Journal of Ageing, Health and Society is a peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary academic journal dedicated to advancing research, policy analysis, and scholarly debate on ageing, health systems, social care, and the changing experience of later life. The journal provides a platform for original research, review articles, policy analysis, commentaries, field studies, and book reviews that examine ageing as a medical, social, economic, demographic, and public policy challenge.
The journal welcomes contributions from scholars, clinicians, public health experts, economists, sociologists, demographers, social workers, legal scholars, urban planners, care-sector professionals, and policy practitioners. It seeks to bridge academic research and public policy by encouraging evidence-based discussion on healthy ageing, long-term care, geriatric health, elder rights, social protection, mental health, disability, family and community care, age-friendly cities, technology for ageing, and the economics of ageing societies.
With a special interest in India and the Global South, while remaining open to comparative and global perspectives, the journal aims to promote rigorous scholarship that can inform policy, improve practice, and deepen public understanding of ageing in rapidly transforming societies.
