The ACT Government will develop the next Age-Friendly City Plan 2025–2035.
Community consultation has begun on a 10-year plan to make Canberra a great place to grow older.
The ACT Government will develop the next Age-Friendly City Plan 2025–2035 to set the direction and priorities to make Canberra a place where everyone can age well.
Canberrans are being asked to share their thoughts and vision for an inclusive, accessible and welcoming city where people are celebrated as they grow older.
The consultation will cover five focus areas, including:
- health
- employment and financial security
- housing
- access and connection
- respect, inclusion and belonging.
There are a number of ways Canberrans can share their views:
- complete the YourSay survey
- upload a submission on the YourSay website
- attend an in-person facilitated discussion at a library – there are discussions scheduled at Belconnen, Dickson, Tuggeranong and Kippax libraries
- host a discussion with friends or community groups using a discussion guide designed to draw out feedback that can be shared with the government.
Consultation opened on Monday 22 April 2024 and continue until Friday 28 June 2024.
