Age-Readiness for the Global Community: A One-Day Summit

The Global Ageing Network will convene a one-day summit to advance age-readiness across societies, envisioned as ensuring older persons have the supports they need, their voices are heard, and they can fully participate in community life. The summit will bring together experts from a range of disciplines including health, urban planning and environmental design, transportation, education, sports, entrepreneurship, government, providers, and technology to explore how integration across disciplines, spanning formal systems and everyday practice can support older adults to live well, be heard, and fully engage in community life.

This unique multi-sector gathering is designed to enable a focused, unrestricted exploration of the full scope of age-readiness.

The Summit will take place one day prior to the full LeadingAge Annual Meeting, happening October 25-28 in Philadelphia.
