The Ibero-American Forum of Plastic Economics, held in Panama from October 2 to 4, represents an opportunity to transform the paradigm of sentionality and to promote innovation, intergenerational exchange and collaboration.

The Ministry of Culture (MiCultura) sponsors of the event that promotes innovation, entrepreneurship and inclusion by highlighting the value of the population aged 50 and up in the Ibero-American region.

Enrique Noel, national director of Cultural Rights and Citizenship, said that "the silver economy is also built from an inclusive approach. It's about old people using economic goods and services to be satisfied with their human rights."

He added that the institution supports these forms of initiatives because they contribute to the establishment of links with the creative economy, which can currently meet the needs of older people.

During the development of the Forum, experiences have been put forward in other countries with a view to highlighting the value of the population more than 50 years old and that they are considered as individuals capable of production.
