Silver Hues: Building Age-Ready Cities

Published 14th April 2022

Silver Hues: Building Age-Ready Cities is a policy document by the World Bank, that intends to help articulate the idea of “age-readiness” while building on the idea of “age-friendliness.” It is intended for cities and towns as they prepare for an older urban age, offering examples and options to help younger cities visualize age-readiness while focusing primarily on the built urban environment. Its main audience is intended to be policymakers, city leaders, and implementing agencies, but it is also expected be useful to researchers, nongovernmental organizations, the private sector, and communities.
