CFP for Special Issue "Age-Friendly Cities & Communities: State of the Art and Future Perspectives""

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of Dr Hannah R. Marston and Professor Joost van Hoof, a Feature Paper Special Issue titled "Age-Friendly Cities & Communities: State of the Art and Future Perspectives" which will be published in the section of Health Care sciences & Services of the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (IJERPH) by MDPI. 

Currently IJERPH has an Impact Factor of 2.468.

The number of older adults is increasing rapidly, and this demographic shift places an increased level of strain and tension on the various international healthcare and welfare systems. The vast majority of older adults wish to age in place, and many make use of long-term care services, including home care, rehabilitation services, and social support, as well as home modifications and technology.

More information can be found in the attached document about the call and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to email: Hannah.Marston@open.ac.uk
