Active Aging Plan for British Columbia

The Ministry of Health is developing an Active Aging Plan for the province. The plan is based on the collaboration of communities, organizations, health authorities, governments and individuals working together to create the conditions by which older people can continue to live independently, and continue to make valuable contributions to society.
Four priority areas for strategic action will be covered in the Active Aging Plan:

  1. Improving and maintaining the health and wellbeing of older British Columbians
  2. Creating age-friendly communities
  3. Coordinating action and promoting partnerships, collaboration and commitment
  4. Leadership and participation of older people
