Today's UEG Interview will talk about Violence against the Elderly. Considered a public and social health problem, violence against the elderly is still a taboo subject, often ignored by society.

To talk about this subject, we will welcome attorney Maria Madalena Melo Martins Carvelo, member of the Special Committee for Senior Lawyers of the OAB-GO.
