Enhancing Living Experiences of the Elderly
ELITE Project
About the Project
The ELITE (Enhancing Living Experiences of the Elderly) project is a transformative initiative that focuses on empowering elderly individuals for healthy ageing through community-based strategies. This project adopts a hybrid implementation research approach to integrate self-care practices and promote intergenerational engagement.
Background
India’s elderly population is growing rapidly, projected to reach nearly 20% by 2050. With this demographic shift, there is an urgent need for solutions that address their unique health and social challenges. The ELITE project leverages the provisions of Health and Wellness Centres (HWCs) and community-based support to empower the elderly and foster healthier, age-integrated societies.
