AUB University for Seniors was chosen by AUB Alumni offices as ONE of eight beneficiaries of this year AUB4Beirut run (more on this initiative). It did so given the impact of the program on the lives of older people for the past 13 years. The program that started as a life-long learning program is turning now into a hub for trainings, advocacy and research for and with older people.
FIVE Alumni chapters will be running/walking for the University for Seniors: Toronto Chapter, Greater Los Angeles Chapter, Houston Chapter, Jordan Chapter and WAAAUB Health Sciences chapter.
