Introduction to a collection of articles on aging education in a global context based on the proceedings of the annual conference of the Association for Gerontology in Higher Education (AGHE). The volume includes a dual focus on (1) issues related to gerontology and geriatric education around the world and (2) issues related to teaching about global and cross-cultural aging. Several of the chapters provide useful information and resources for educators seeking ways to incorporate cross-cultural aging into their courses. The remaining three chapters deal with issues related to aging education in Kenya, Japan and China.
