Age-Friendly Cities Initiative

The Age-Friendly Cities Initiative is a global effort to make urban environments better suited for residents aged 60 and above. It encourages cities to adapt their infrastructure, services, and policies to support healthy, active, and independent aging. This includes accessible public spaces, transportation, healthcare, social opportunities, and safety. The goal is to create inclusive communities where older adults can participate fully in social, economic, and cultural life, enhancing their quality of life and fostering intergenerational connections. The initiative promotes collaboration among governments, organizations, and residents to build age-friendly, sustainable cities.
