CityLAB XII: Age-Friendly Cities | Summer School | Antwerp Summer University

Summer School | 29 June - 3 July 2026

How accessible are urban environments for older people? How age-proof are mobility infrastructure, daily amenities and local policies?

In this summer school, we offer a comprehensive understanding of the main challenges in research, policy and practices to ageing in cities. Through an inter- and transdisciplinary approach, workshops with experts and field visits, we will explore good practices that support older adults to make optimal use of their urban environment.

Highlights in the programme

  • ​Experience the city like older adults do
  • Learn how to conduct research with older people through co-creation
  • Approach age-friendly cities from different angles, such as mobility, food accessibility and housing
