Regional Action Plan On Healthy Ageing In The Western Pacific

The Regional Action Plan on Healthy Ageing in the Western Pacific aims to support Member States to improve the health and well-being of older populations in the Region so that they thrive and contribute in society. The Plan is guided by a multisectoral, future-oriented and lifelong approach that adopts an equity lens and encourages the use of existing assets to the extent possible. The Plan outlines five objectives for achieving the vision of healthy ageing in the Western Pacific Region. They can be broadly categorized as objectives to enable social return (Objective 1), objectives to support healthy ageing (Objectives 2-4), and objectives to enhance research, monitoring and evaluation (Objective 5).
