Description

Valerie Greer, Terry Fulmer, Ashley Cadiz, Christopher Hernandez, and Linda Edelman report on a symposium about building age-friendly ecosystems, in this 2023 paper. The age-friendly movement adapts neighborhoods, health systems, and campuses to serve older adults better. The online gathering brought national experts and regional aging stakeholders together to take a place-based view.

About one hundred thirteen people attended, including twenty-seven health professions students, and most said the event deepened their grasp of age-friendly ideas. Talks, panels, and group work pointed to gains from shared language and shared measures across neighborhoods, campuses, and clinics. Planned outputs include a website, a resource guide, and a book. The authors frame the meeting as a base for wider teamwork on fair, healthy aging.
