National programmes for age-friendly cities and communities

Our physical and social environments are major influences on how we experience ageing and the opportunities it brings. Creating age-friendly environments enables all people to age well in a place that is right for them, continue to develop personally, be included, and contribute to their communities while enabling their independence and health. Developing age-friendly cities and communities (AFCC) is a proven way to create more age-friendly environments – for everyone.
