Senior’s Euro- Orphanhood and Quality of Life: New Challenges for Social Pedagogy
Abstract
Taking on the issue of the quality of human life at a senior age requires the adoption of a particular
perspective to recognizing the phenomenon of old age. It is in fact a phenomenon extremely diverse,
multifaceted, involving closely related aspects of the biological, social and psychological, and its
course is conditioned by the convolution of a variety of factors. One of them is the emigration of
young people, who leave their parents alone in the home country and in fact make them Euroorphans.
Job migration of adult children is a critical event in the lives of seniors and thus has a significant
impact on their life quality. It is treated as a cognitive-emotional category associated with
the environmental context of their daily activities. The phenomenon of Euro-orphanhood of seniors
generates new lines of research in the field of social pedagogy. Contribution to them is mentioned in
the article as a comparative research project.
