Résumé documentaire — langue originale

Population aging requires innovative solutions that promote social inclusion and active aging. In this context, the University of Maturity (UMA), which is part of the Federal University of Tocantins, stands out as a pioneering social technology in the education of older adults. Based on the principles of gerontological education, UMA values accumulated knowledge, promotes well-being, and strengthens intergenerational bonds. The discussion addresses inclusive educational technologies, a curriculum open to Indigenous worldviews, education with older adults, and aging as an ancestral connection, including the concept of forest citizenship (florestania). With an interdisciplinary curriculum encompassing education, culture, health, and leisure, UMA reaches traditional communities, such as the Akwẽ-Xerente Indigenous people in the state of Tocantins (Brazil), and expands to Soure (Portugal). Its intergenerational approach promotes the exchange of knowledge between generations, empowering older adults and highlighting their transformative role in society. This initiative combats prejudice and strengthens the construction of an inclusive society prepared for the challenges of aging. Between 2023 and 2024, an exploratory study analyzed the social and cultural impacts of UMA in Amazonian and Portuguese contexts. Through observations and interviews, practices promoting active aging and intergenerational integration were identified. The study reinforces UMA as a replicable model that can be adapted to different cultures, contributing to the development of inclusive public policies and consolidating gerontological education as a tool for social transformation.
