These actions provide better networking for seniors and break the isolation of those who suffer. In an MADA, a culture of social inclusion for seniors is developing. The policies, services and structures that affect built and social environments are designed to support seniors and help them age by staying active.
An MADA is a municipality which:
- curbs ageism;
- knows how to adapt its policies, services and structures;
- promotes the participation of seniors;
