Age-Friendly Cities and Communities
Age-Friendly Cities and Communities are urban areas that prioritize the needs of older adults, ensuring they can live safely, comfortably, and independently. This involves accessible transportation, safe outdoor spaces, affordable housing, healthcare services, social opportunities, and community support. The goal is to create environments that promote active aging, respect diverse abilities, and foster social inclusion, allowing older residents to remain engaged and valued members of society. By adapting city planning and resources, these communities help improve quality of life for people of all ages.
