Alzheimer’s disease is the most commonly diagnosed form of dementia, but it’s far from the only one. In fact, most people who have dementia (including Alzheimer’s) show signs of several different types of neurodegenerative disease in their brains. https://t.co/ejCzhCfx15 @nytimes
At the World Summit on Social Development in Doha, Qatar, IFA helped spotlight a powerful truth: building age-friendly cities builds stronger societies across generations.
Our session brought together global leaders, local innovators and civil society to show that Age-Friendly Cities and Communities are not just a health or ageing issue—they are essential to inclusive, resilient development.
As the world urbanizes and ages, age-friendly frameworks are a direct, adaptable solution to enable stronger economies, healthier population, and the ability for all to age with purpose, choice and dignity.
Thank you to our co-organizers, speakers and participants. Let’s keep pushing for cities that work for everyone.

Women are a cornerstone of prosperity for society as a whole. There is an unacceptably high cost to gender inequality. It is important to act together. Not women on one side & men on the other. No one loses when women & girls experience equality & empowerment. #IWD2018
Persons with disabilities are changemakers, peacemakers and leaders.

Please re-Tweet to raise awareness: There is no ‘typical’ older person. Communities and countries need adaptable policies.
