Healthy Ageing in Singapore : Opportunities, Challenges and the Way Forward Hardback
by Sabrina Ching Yuen Luk
Part of the Social Policy and Development Studies in East Asia series
Hardback
Description
Singapore is the world’s second-fastest ageing society and will become a super- aged society by 2030.
This book fills an important research gap by examining Singapore’s efforts to achieve healthy ageing.
It draws on both semi-structured interviews and secondary data (e.g. government documents, journal articles, books, reports) to examine hot topics such as financial wellness of older adults, ageing in place, dementia friendly communities and digital connection with older adults in the time of the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
In the interviews, experts and professionals provide valuable insights into the issue of healthy ageing in Singapore.
The book ’s goal is to provide a comprehensive portrait of healthy ageing in Singapore, while also sharing valuable lessons to help other countries achieve healthy ageing.
