October 1 is International Day of Older Persons — a day to recognize the contributions of older adults and the importance of supporting people as they age.
The World Health Organization’s Decade of Healthy Aging reminds us that healthy aging is about more than health care. It’s about creating communities and support systems that help older adults maintain their abilities, independence, connections, and quality of life.
At Arosa, we see every day how the right support can help older adults continue doing what matters most to them.
Learn more about the WHO’s work toward a world where everyone has the opportunity to age with health, dignity, and purpose.
The International Day of Older Persons is an opportunity to highlight the important contributions that older people make to society and raise awareness of the opportunities and challenges of ageing in today’s world.
