World Health Organization (WHO) Age-Friendly Initiative

The World Health Organization’s Age-Friendly Initiative aims to make communities supportive and accessible for people of all ages, especially older adults. It encourages cities and towns to improve physical environments, enhance social participation, and provide better health and social services. The goal is to help seniors live independent, active, and healthy lives, feeling valued and included in society. By promoting age-friendly policies and environments, the initiative fosters communities where everyone can thrive regardless of age.
