The projects are: the Seis Ponto Zero Project (60 years) and the Technological and Social Tea Project, developed at the Elderly Living Center (CCI) and the Institute for Technological and Social Development (IDEAR), respectively. Regarding the specific objectives, we sought to understand the profile of the elderly who participate in the project, understand the influence of ageism, and identify the benefits that this knowledge added to their lives. As for the methodology, the research consists of in depth evaluation with qualitative, exploratory, descriptive, field and bibliographic methodology.
