Paris, the new age-friendly city<\/h2>\n

During the ceremony at the Hotel de Ville, Alana Officer<\/strong>, Senior Health Advisor, Department of Ageing and Life Course at WHO said, \u201cWe are delighted to welcome Paris to our network. Together, we can build age-inclusive communities by breaking down barriers to participation, fostering solidarity, and creating ideal places for people to grow older.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\"france-paris\"WHO began building the GNAFCC in 2010 to encourage the rethinking of environments so that they welcome everyone \u2013 especially older people.\u00a0The Network has grown rapidly to include 500 cities and communities in 37 countries covering over 155 million people. <\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2016, the World Health Assembly and the G7 highlighted the importance of developing age-friendly communities. The recent WHO report ‘Ten Years in Public Health (2007-2017)’ highlights the Network as one of the successes of this period.<\/p>\n
