Policy and Aging

Policy and aging involve developing and implementing strategies to address the needs of an increasingly older population. This includes creating laws and programs related to healthcare, pensions, and retirement security, as well as ensuring access to affordable housing and age-friendly communities. Policies also focus on supporting long-term care services, promoting active aging, and addressing age-related discrimination. Effective policies aim to enhance the quality of life for older adults, promote their independence, and integrate their needs into broader social and economic planning.
