We will explain what objectives are sought by these rights and recourses.
Fundamental rights are inherent to every person, without exception.
The same goes for the right to equality, which we will address by concentrating on the interdiction to discriminate on the basis of age. We will also address the biases that can affect elder persons. The section on economic and social rights contains an article that protects elderly persons from being exploited. We will thus explain what recourses are available and what practices have been put in place by the Commission des droits de la personne et des droits de la jeunesse to protect aged persons from being exploited. The content of this workshop may be adapted to the needs of different clienteles.
