Background research or a framework, useful for context across cities.
The WHO Commission on Social Connection is hosting a 'Connection Conversation' on 25 June — during Loneliness Awareness Week and alongside the 3rd World Congress of Age-Friendly Cities — on how cities and communities can foster social connection across all ages, soft-launching a new WHO living guide on local action for age-friendly communities. The throughline: connection is shaped by physical environment and urban design, not individual effort alone — a useful frame for any cultural programme arguing that participation builds wellbeing and cohesion.
