Since 2002, it has been promoting healthy and active ageing in urban environments by informing public discussion and action.
Our framework provides a holistic, multi-dimensional approach across a range of domains that are grouped into three environments. It underpins the three themes of the Positive Ageing Strategy 2021-2047.
| Environments | Age-friendly domains | Positive Ageing Strategy Themes |

| Physical environment | outdoor spaces and buildings transportation housing. | Theme 1: People, as they age, live in safe, welcoming, and strongly connected local communities |
| Social environment | social participation respect and social inclusion employment civic engagement | Theme 2: People, as they age, are respected, supported, and encouraged to participate as active citizens in building strong local communities |
| Services and support | community and health services communication and information | Theme 3: As they age, people have equitable access to places, spaces, and services |
