Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Japan is now facing a very rapidly aging society. We are especially focused on the topic of aging in communities; how elderly people can live well (not in facilities, but in their residential spaces in their village, town, or city). We need to rethink local community planning and design for super-aged societies to allow people to age in their communities. Mutual support in the local community is particularly important in an aging society. Mutual support consists of socialization with neighbors, activities in the public space, and engaging in a variety of types of activities. There are various types of mutual support on a number of scales within the sphere of daily living. Informal activities in public spaces can be a chance for mutual support. For this reason, places which are comfortable for elderly people will increasingly be needed in public areas.
