The Center for Gerontology (ZfG) is an interdisciplinary and interfaculty competence center of the University of Zurich. It develops scientific foundations for aging with a good quality of life and, to this end, strives for the interdisciplinary networking of research and teaching in all areas of gerontology.
The center raises awareness of gerontological issues in business, politics, culture, the church and the public and promotes cooperation and understanding between researchers, older adults themselves and those involved in practical work with older individuals.
