In October, 2024 at CHOGM in Samoa, Dame Carol Black, the Secretary General’s Special Envoy on Ageing Well, released a Report on “Ageing Well in the Commonwealth – A Roadmap for Healthy Ageing Across the Life Course: 2024–2030.” This roadmap builds on the great work of the World Health Organisation (WHO), the National Academy of Medicine (NAM) and, in particular, CommonAge, who have led the way as advocates for ensuring that older people in the Commonwealth are fully recognised in society and supported to live well in age-friendly communities.
