Abstract
El objetivo de este artículo es ofrecer una introducción sobre el proceso de
envejecimiento, aclarar las diversas concepciones y teorías desde las que podemos
abordar el análisis del envejecimiento, estudiar los conceptos de calidad de vida y
envejecimiento activo, así como la relación que se mantiene entre calidad de vida,
envejecimiento activo y educación permanente. En este sentido profundizamos
en los programas universitarios para personas mayores como ejemplo práctico
de intervención socioeducativa orientada al envejecimiento activo. Igualmente
analizamos el caso concreto del Aula Abierta de Mayores de la Universidad Pablo
de Olavide. Dicho programa consta de la versatilidad suficiente para adaptarse a
las necesidades socioeducativas de los adultos mayores que son protagonistas de
su propio aprendizaje. Se crean espacios de aprendizaje y vivencias, que propician
las relaciones intergeneracionales.

In this sense, we deepen the university programs for older people as a practical example of socio-educational intervention oriented to active aging. We also analyze the specific case of the Elderly’s Open Room of the Pablo de Olavide University. This program has the versatility enough to adapt to the socio-educational needs of the elderly who are protagonists of their own learning. They create spaces of learning and experiences, which foster intergenerational relationships.
