WHO Age-friendly World

WHO Age-friendly World is an initiative by the World Health Organization that aims to create communities suited to the needs of older adults. It encourages cities and towns to improve public spaces, transportation, healthcare, social inclusion, and housing, making it easier for seniors to live independently, stay active, and participate fully in community life. The goal is to promote healthy aging and ensure older adults can enjoy dignity, safety, and well-being as they age. This movement involves collaboration among governments, organizations, and communities to build supportive environments for all ages.
