Abstract: Abstract In today's society, due to changes in family structures, urbanization, busy lifestyles, and increasing distance between people, many elderly people are forced to live in old age homes. Death of a spouse, physical illness, financial insecurity, children living abroad or in distant places, family neglect, and loneliness are the main reasons for moving to old age homes. Although these institutions provide safety, treatment, and shelter to the elderly, many elderly people living there face problems such as social isolation, mental depression, identity crisis, and loneliness. In this context, education plays an important role as an effective and powerful means of social integration. Education in old age does not only mean formal teaching; it also includes informal and non-formal educational activities such as literacy programs, digital skills training, health awareness discussions, religious and cultural practices, storytelling, music and painting, handicrafts, book reading meetings, and intergenerational educational activities. These activities increase communication between the elderly, create opportunities for sharing experiences, and create a caring and participatory environment. Educational activities play an important role in reducing loneliness and social isolation. Through regular participation, the elderly remain mentally active, regain self-confidence, and feel like a valuable part of society. Education builds self-esteem, social bonds, and a positive outlook on life. It also improves mental health and helps ensure active aging.Therefore, this paper shows that it is very necessary to include not only physical care, but also educational and social activities in old age homes. Education serves as an effective tool in improving the social cohesion, mental well-being, and overall quality of life of the elderly.
