is it possible to promote WHO methodology related to age-friendly cities and communities as a standard in the EU? otherwise, there will be plenty various "age-friendly" standards that will not fit to each other...

I believe environmental quality of spaces occupied by elderly people is of the utmost importance! It has not only a huge impact on their quality of life but also very big implications in terms of costs for the health care system. We can't forget how sensitive and frail many of us can be at this age and, thus, particular attention must be put on this issue!

I believe that an environment incorporating in its design principles the knowledge on human physiology and perception and especially the physiology and perception of people across the lifespan, where multi-morbidities such as frailty and Alzheimer’s might occur, is beneficial for all other aspects of care and everyday life and acts as their multiplier.
