Abstract
A literature review on the quality of life of the elderly was conducted at the University of Guantanamo, with the objective of assessing the role of the Chair of the University of the elderly as a way to raise the quality of life of this population. Population aging is a social reality that requires the search for alternatives aimed at meeting the needs of older adults in order to raise their quality of life. There are several options put into practice by the health sector in coordination with other organizations and organizations for this purpose. The University of the Elderly provides this new population with a new way of seeing life and living it.
