Age-Friendly City

Reus has been part of the Network of Age-Friendly Cities and Communities since June 2025. This is an initiative promoted by the World Health Organization (WHO) that promotes active and healthy aging through inclusive public policies adapted to the needs of seniors.

The accession represents an explicit recognition by the WHO of the commitment of the Reus City Council to improving the quality of life of the elderly population, and positions the city within a global network that works to make urban environments more accessible, safe and participatory for all ages.

Reus is committed to promoting the active participation of older people in its municipal policies; developing a local action plan based on the real needs and contributions of the elderly population and ensuring a process of continuous improvement that guarantees the progressive adaptation of the city to the different realities of aging.

Among the benefits of being part of this international network are access to shared knowledge and contact with other cities that work in the same line.

The Active and Healthy Ageing Plan was already designed following the guidelines of the WHO Age-Friendly Cities Guide and the criteria of the Vancouver Protocol, and promotes a cross-cutting view of aging in all municipal policies.
