It refers to the attitudes, behaviours and messages of the community towards older people. An inclusive society appreciates and shows respect for the elderly, and encourages older people to participate more in their city’s social, civic and economic activities.
An age-friendly city and community provides ample opportunities of voluntary work and paid employment, and encourages civic participation for older people so that they can continue to contribute to their communities after retirement.
Appropriate distribution of information to older people in a timely, accessible and affordable manner, through the communication channels that seniors are familiar with, helps prevent social exclusion of elderly people.
A wide range of accessible and affordable health and support services are vital to keep seniors healthy, independent and active.
