Ageing and Health Concept of the Swiss Red Cross


The concept outlines the context and challenges of Ageing and Health globally. The SRC pursues four outcomes in Ageing and Health:

1) Improving access to good quality home-based care services;

2) Increasing the participation and social inclusion of elderly people is increased and age-friendly environments are supported;

3) The needs of elderly people in the disaster risk management cycle are taken account of and are met;

4) More commitment to action on Ageing and Health is advocated for inside the SRC, the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement as well as globally with Ministries and other stakeholders.
