L. Summary of my Activities and Future Plans
A. Research
My scientific research to date has focused mainly on Law, Social Policy and Ageing. These
constitute a novel and still developing field of academic expertise that, in light of the
revolution in ageing and the struggle to shape new policies that address the social issues
arising from it, has become a very dynamic and promising field of research.
In the short time of my academic activity I have begun to be known as an
international academic expert in the field of Law, Social Policy and Ageing and have
developed new models and modes of research in this field. There are already numerous
international studies that have relied on my research findings. It should be noted that I
edited the first (and only) international book regarding the theoretical conceptualization of
elder law (Doron, 2008) which included chapters from the leading scholars in this field
world wide. The international success of this book was the basis for publishing yet another
key book in the field (Doron & Soden, 2012), which went beyond theories and into future
developmental directions of the field of law and aging.
From a research perspective, in an article I have written in 2006 (article no. 23) I
have set the agenda for my future research, and pointed to three different novel research
directions: 1) International elder law; 2) Municipal elder law; 3) Jurisprudential gerontology.
Since my last promotion I have executed my plans and conducted, headed, and advanced
the research in all of these three novel research fields. For example, in the field of
international elder law, I have been a partner in developing a new discourse for the need to
a new international convention for the rights of older persons, and I have published one of
the leading articles in this field (in The Gerontologist, i.e. Doron & Apter, 2010); For
example, in the field of municipal elder law, I have received a research grant from the
Borchard Foundation (with Prof. Kim Dayton) to conduct and advance the research in this
field, a study that was followed by several publications (Doron, 2010; Doron & Dayton,
2012; Dayton & Doron, 2012): Finally, in the field of jurisprudential gerontology, I have
received a grant from the Van Lear Institute to lead a research group in the field of ageism
in Israel, and important research articles are in progress from this activity. Thus, I was
successful in deepening and focusing my research abilities and successful both in
publishing in leading academic journals as well as winning significant research grants to
promote my research, as I planned.
Moreover, since my last promotion I have established myself as an international
lead-researcher in the field of Law, Social Policy and Ageing. This has been exemplified in
my nomination to important commissions such as the ABA commission on Law and
Aging, and IFA’s Advisory Commission on Legal Issues. This has also been shown in my
edited book (with Prof. Kate Mewhinney) on the International Collection of Documents
on the Rights of Older Persons and editing the first (and only) book on the theories of law
and aging (Doron, 2008). Finally, I was invited by the UN to be a member of the UN
Expert Group on elder rights, and writing recommendations for the Assembly General on
the issue of the future of an International Convention for the Rights of Older Persons. I
intend continue to use my experience and broad perspective in International and
Comparative Law to broaden and to encourage research activities in the field.
I would like to emphasize that, for better or for worse, my expertise covers a field
that is unique in both its novel inter-disciplinary nature and its relationship to a relatively
young discipline namely, Gerontology. The interdisciplinary nature of my field of expertise
mandates linking legal knowledge to Gerontology and Social Work. It requires being able
to integrate the theory and methodology of disciplines that traditionally had no common
ground. The novelty of this field is that only very few scholars in the world have developed
expertise in it, while there is great interest in it and a need to develop it.

B. Teaching and Academic Leadership
In my teaching I place great emphasis on educating my students in both Gerontology and
Social Work. I strive to achieve excellence in teaching, and my efforts were rewarded by
"Awards for Excellence in Teaching", in 2002 and 2003. Moreover, I use up-to-date
technology in my teaching. All my courses are computerized and all my lectures to classes
are accompanied by Power Point presentations. I have been nominated to be the Head of
the Gerontology Department (since March 2011), and I plan to lead the department to new
excellent academic achievements, a mission that I am working on right now.
C. Social Involvement and Contribution to the Community
I am very actively involved in both the internal academic community and the external local
and national social communities. Within academia I have initiated and have been involved
in various projects, such as the establishment of the "cluster" of legal and ethical courses in
my faculty; being a guest-editor of the University of Haifa School of Social Work's
academic journal; and the creation of a Students-Faculty Convention on Rights and
Duties.
Outside the academic community I am heavily involved, on a voluntary basis, in
general community activity and in sharing my expertise with the older population in Israel.
I was elected on 2009 to be the President of Israel’s Gerontological Society; I established a
new NGO, Law in the Service of the Elderly (www.elderlaw.org.il), that is the first NGO
of its kind in Israel that uses legal strategy to protect and promote the rights of older
persons. As part of my activities in this NGO, I provide free legal information and advice
to older persons. Furthermore, I give on a regular basis, lectures to older people in nursing
homes, day centers, and old-age homes on a regular, voluntary basis.
Finally, it should be also mentioned that my academic work had some social impact
through court decisions, (including the Israeli Supreme Court rulings) which either cited or
relied on my published academic research, for example, in the field of grandparents
visitation rights, or in the field of ageism.
