Resumo: The increase of population aging has been noticed all over the world and it is a reflex of the technological improvements in the social and health sectors. Such transformation challenges society in general to qualify this delay of human aging, adapting the socio-cultural, economical, educational and political actions to this new demand. Thus, the present research aimed at checking the educational public policies for the elderly and their implementation by SEED –Pr in the city of Prudentópolis, as well as identifying the elderly interest and difficulties regarding their participation in educational projects. In order to do so, a qualitative methodology with an investigatory approach has been chosen, making use of a questionnaire and documental analysis as instruments for the research. The data collected have been analyzed in an interpretative way. This analysis allowed a better understanding of the state reality of the elderly in relation to the offer of permanent education programs and the value of the elderly in society. The general conclusions that have been reached are the following: in the public sphere, education is the sector which least contemplates the elderly with projects guided to their interests; the population in general is not aware of the “Statute of the Elderly” yet, a fact that reinforces the stigma of aging as a phase of personal and unproductive decay; there are no educational programs specific for the elderly. The research points out the need for a greater awareness on behalf of all the population regarding the growing population of the Elderly, its importance and active participation in society; apart from that, there must be preparation of the new generations for a good intergenerational companionship, as well as preparation for their own aging; after all, prejudice against the elderly and their inclusion in educational projects of their interest must be ceased, a fact that will make them active citizens in all sectors of society, such as social, political, economical, juridical, sanitary, cultural ones, etc.
