This workshop is aimed at delegates who are involved in coordinating age-friendly programmes and initiatives. It sets out the key principles and skills age-friendly leadership and why it’s important. It will bring in examples from the Nordic network for age-friendly cities and communities and the recently published UK Age-friendly leadership guide. It will also offer an opportunity to reflect on the skills required, where they already exist in you and your community, and how you can develop them further.
