Making Stockholm a Better City for Seniors

The City of Stockholm has adopted an action plan for an age-friendly city, aiming to ensure that older Stockholmers enjoy the same human rights as other groups in society. Based on the WHO model, the plan focuses on five areas: participation and influence, collaboration, social inclusion, housing and urban environment, and communication and information. All committees and companies are now responsible for systematically combating ageism and improving the quality of life for older residents.
