The speakers are journalist and researcher Shahar Shekels and Dr. Atar Milou, a gerontologist and specialist in the third age.
On the immigration crisis and political chaos—A current perspective
Lecturer: Shahar Shekelesh—journalist and historian
Europe is changing its face. The continent that was home to distinct nations has found itself, in recent decades, facing an immigration crisis, an identity crisis, and a political crisis that threaten the tranquility of life and the fraternity among its citizens. Where will these crises lead? And how will they affect Israel?
Between psychology, genetics, and the environment—A research-based perspective
Lecturer: Dr. Atar Milou—gerontologist, specialist in the third age
The lecture will discuss the psychological, chemical, genetic, social, and environmental factors that affect our level of happiness, and examine how this feeling can be maximized. We will also discuss how happiness changes throughout the life cycle, particularly in the third age—all based on up-to-date research.
