Age-Friendly Cities and Communities

Age-Friendly Cities and Communities Resource Manual – now available

Globally, age-friendly cities, communities, and practices have become synonymous with building communities that help enable older people to reach and sustain their functional ability. In January 2014, Grantmakers in Ageing (GIA) collaborated with the IFA to help build and strengthen the capacity of five Community AGEnda Sites: Atlanta, Miami, Phoenix, Kansas City, Missouri.

The Manual has links connected to a range of resources in the categories of – Positive Economic Impact of Age-friendly Communities; Toolkits, Guidelines and Resource Manuals; Promoting your Age-Friendly Project; and Tools to Evaluate the Age-Friendly Process.
