UN Age-Friendly Cities Program

The UN Age-Friendly Cities Program encourages cities worldwide to become inclusive and supportive for all ages, especially older adults. It promotes projects that improve urban environments, transportation, healthcare, social participation, and safety, enabling seniors to lead active, independent lives. Cities participating assess their needs, plan improvements, and work collaboratively with communities to address age-related challenges. The goal is to create urban spaces where people of all ages feel valued, respected, and able to contribute, fostering healthier, more equitable communities for everyone as they age.
