The NEAR Steering Board member, Ingmar Skoog, has started a Swedish podcast together with the journalist Anders Palmgren entitled: “25% with Palmgren and Skoog”.

25% with Palmgren and Skoog is a podcast that addresses the view of older persons (65+ years) and wants to start a debate on important issues related to aging. For example, what does it mean that so few older adults are shown and represented in the media and politics? How does this reflect and affect societal issues related to aging? So far, 11 episodes have been released where various prominent guests, i.e., Miia Kivipelto, Barbro Westerholm, Claes Elfsberg, and Thomas Mattsson have been interviewed.
