Life expectancy in the Nordic region is increasing and the proportion of elderly is growing rapidly. Even though this is a positive development, it poses major challenges. Especially in the fields of housing, transportation, urban planning, health care and social services. It is important to create environments that accommodate senior citizens and allow them to continue to experience quality of life as they get older.
How do we create these age-friendly communities? Many municipalities in the Nordic region are working ambitiously to become a better place to grow older in. Seven Nordic cities have joined the WHO network Age-friendly cities and communities. Some of these cities are described in a Nordic Welfare publication called A better environment to age in – working towards age-friendly cities in the Nordic region (2018). The cities in this network are committed to work within several areas and with a long-term perspective to involve the elderly to participate in this development.
Inclusive community planning must be based on human diversity and also contribute to sustainable development. A universally designed society is thus an investment.
This is the first major conference in the Nordic region focusing on age-friendly cities. The aim of the conference is to pave the way for establishing a strong Nordic network that can work with these issues in the years to come.
Experts, politicians, researchers and representatives from pensioners’ organisations in the Nordic countries are included in the program of this conference. The speakers will inspire by presenting their ideas for changes and improvements.
The conference is arranged in the Stockholm area on the 15-16th of October 2018 and the target group is politicians, decision-makers and civil servants at both national and local level as well as organisations from the Nordic countries, Faroe Islands, Greenland and Åland.
The conference is arranged by the Nordic Welfare Centre on behalf of the Nordic Council of Ministers and in close cooperation with the Swedish Presidency of the Nordic Council of Ministers.
Conference venue
The conference will take place at Radisson Blu Royal Park Hotel, situated in Solna just outside the city center of Stockholm, Sweden. The hotel is located at the edge of the beautiful Brunnsviken Bay and Haga Park, offering beautiful walking routes and the Haga Palace, a stunning example of early 19th century Swedish architecture.

The numbers speak for themselves: we are moving towards an ageing society with a strong representation in the highest age ranges. This needs to be addressed. The way we age is now a motive of reflection and concern among various scientific and professional fields. Whether it’s Medicine, Cosmetics, Sports, Leisure, Economics or Politics, there are no unaffected areas when we speak about structural implications of this natural phenomenon and it’s social outcomes. Talking about the richness and complexity of the contemporary ageing is the main goal of this conference.
In two days of multidisciplinary programming, we’ll cross perspectives from several fields. From Geriatrics to Sociology, Law, Psychology, Sports, Nutritions, Religions, among many others, believing that the articulation of their contributes and experiences may enhance the knowledge about a cross and timeless interest.
Based on some relevant and current discussion topics, Let’s Talk About Ageing is Multidisciplinary Scientific Congress and also an informal meeting to cross scientific and professional knowledge with daily experiences, and will certainly be an enriching moment for researchers, professionals and everyone interested in this area.
Conference Proceedings & Abstract Book will be published after the congress.

SIC Introduction
The 5th China International Silver Industry Exhibition gathers the most influential brands at home and abroad and lays its emphasis on showcasing and promoting the latest products, equipment and technology in the silver industry. It will provide you with a solid platform to communicate and cooperate with professionals in the silver industry.
The Most Authoritative Development Platform for Silver Industry in China
Promising Silver Industry in China
In 1999, China stepped into an aging society.
As of the end of 2012, China’s elderly po pulation reached 194 million, a year-on-year increase of 8.91 million, accounting for 14.3% of the total population.
In 2013, the elderly population will top the 200-million mark to reach 202 million, and the aging rate will arrive at 14.8%.
An increasingly aging population in China brings with it a market with enormous untapped potential, and a great array of opportunities for the silver industry.
A Booming Industry Brings Huge Business Opportunities
According to the “China’s Aging Population Trend Forecast”, the country’s aging consumers will spend a total of RMB 1.4 trillion in 2012, which will grow to 4.3 trillionby 2020.
In 2015, the potential scale of the market for elderly nursing services and daily care in China will exceed RMB 450 billion, and more than 5 million jobs will be created.
At present, community service for the elderly and beds in elderly care institutions are in seriously short supply. The inadequate, obsolete and underperforming facilities make it very difficult to deliver daily care, nursing and medical rehabilitation service and to attend to the emotional needs of the elderly.
A tough challenge as it is, this also presents valuable opportunities for manufacturers, investors, developers and operators to establish and expand their presence in the silver industry.
Recruiting and retaining talent is critical to success–and more challenging than ever. Discover the innovations that are successfully nurturing new worker pipelines and growing the next generation of leaders.
Residents are best served when senior living professionals share ideas and solutions to cultivate operational efficiencies and business growth, and drive innovation in the way we serve older adults.
Uncover solutions to the occupancy challenge by diving deep into the data to identify sales metrics that matter, and new ideas that promote a salient sales culture.
