The University of Manitoba’s Centre on Aging, in collaboration with the Manitoba Association of Senior Centres, hosted a day long symposium in Brandon on September 30, 2016. Following presentations from researchers, participants were invited to take part in an afternoon workshop to discuss the strategic objectives identified in the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Global Strategy and Action Plan: Aligning health systems to the needs of the older populations they now serve; Developing systems for providing long term care; Creating age-friendly environments; Improving measuring, monitoring, and understanding. For each objective discussed, three priority actions were identified by the WHO in relation to meeting each strategic objective, which helped to inform the discussions. A fifth strategic objective, committing to foster healthy ageing in every country, was omitted from discussion since the researcher presentations were focused on this specific objective. Over 50 people participated in the group discussions, where they discussed two of the objectives and identified how well Manitoba was doing in relation to addressing the WHO’s objectives. Participants selected a topic that interested them and each group was assigned a facilitator/note taker.
