The world’s older population continues to grow at an unprecedented rate. Today, 8.5 percent of
people worldwide (617 million) are age 65 and older, and this percentage is projected to jump to
nearly 17 percent of the world’s population by 2050. This phenomenon has placed a new emphasis
on healthy aging.
Join us as we explore the latest research on how to age well, whatever your current age. We will
explore theories of aging, how much difference lifestyle makes and what lifestyle factors have the
greatest impact on how we age. Learn how to better age for yourself and how to support your older
clients in their aging journey.
Following this presentation the participant will be able to:
• Review demographics of the aging population globally
• Define the aging process
• Discuss lifestyle factors that support healthy aging
• Identify environmental factors that impact healthy aging
