Full Description: 

You are invited to join us in Dublin for the first international conference on age-friendly cities.

At the conference:

  • Learn from international thinkers and practitioners who will be addressing key issues in a creative and practical way
  • Visit the age-friendly global “village” and make direct contact with cities presenting on their programmes
  • Develop future working relationships at our specially structured networking sessions
  • Access our specially designed Resource Bank for Age-friendly Cities

The conference programme is built around three main themes: Social and Cultural Connectivity, Built Environment and Building Momentum for the WHO Global Age-friendly Cities initiative. It consists of plenary and concurrent workshop sessions. Each plenary session addresses one of the main themes. Each set of workshops focuses on various aspects of each of the three themes. This is to facilitate delegates who may wish to ‘track’ in a concentrated way one of the main themes of the conference through their participation in the concurrent workshops.
