Population ageing and increasing urbanisation are two dominant societal trends of the 21st Century. By 2030 two-thirds of the global population will be living in cities and at least a quarter of those urban populations will be aged over 60. Developing urban environments that support and promote healthy living for older people has become a key driver of urban policy and interventions at a local and national level, resulting in planning design concepts and guidelines to support an ageing population. However, current urban planning and development models have overlooked how environments can support a sense of place, articulated through supports for active living, social participation and making a positive contribution to the community. Ageing successfully at home and in the community requires people are able to access 'assets and resources' to support healthy ageing, e.g. transport, adequate housing, healthcare services, and leisure opportunities alongside social networks and opportunities for lifelong learning. Responding to these challenges, this research intends to answer the following research questions: How do older adults experience ageing and sense of place across different urban, social and cultural contexts? In what ways can urban environments support the rights of older people to age in place? What would age-friendly cities and communities look like if they are to support the sense of place needs of older adults living across different urban and cultural contexts? In answering these questions, this research builds upon an existing ESRC Urban Transformations grant (ES/N013220/1) being undertaken exploring how sense of place is experienced by older adults living in 18 neighbourhoods (of varying densities and income levels) across six case study cities in the UK (Edinburgh, Manchester and Glasgow) and Brazil (Pelotas, Porto Alegre, and Brasilia). The aim of the proposed research is to expand transnational understandings of ageing in urban environments to three case study cities in India (Delhi, Calcutta, Hyderabad). This will offer a unique insight into how older adults experience ageing and place across diverse and transformative urban environments in India, providing opportunities for knowledge exchange, allowing for comparative analysis within and across case study cities in India, UK and Brazil, and identifying clear routes to policy and practice.We will use a range of methods to achieve the project aims including sense of place surveys and semi-structured interviews alongside experiential methods including 'go along' walks, photo diaries and community mapping exercises to capture the place-based needs of older adults. A community-based participatory approach will be adopted to the research, bringing together all stakeholders in a process of collaborative dialogue and co-design to challenge the hierarchical power relationships that exist when planning 'for' and not 'with' older people. The results will be used to co-create place-making tools and resources which are essential for designing age friendly environments for older adults in India that work across different cultural, social and welfare contexts. Findings will be disseminated to community, policymaker, practitioner and academic audiences through ongoing and end of project knowledge translation activities. Opportunities are built into the project design to allow for researchers from India, UK and Brasil to come together to exchange findings, share methodological insights and shape the research process.

人口老化和城市化增加是21世纪的两个主要社会趋势。到2030年，全球人口的三分之二将居住在城市中，至少四分之一的城市人口将年龄在60岁之间。发展城市环境以支持和促进老年人健康生活已成为当地和国家一级的城市政策和干预措施的关键驱动力，从而导致计划设计概念和指南来支持老年人的老年人。但是，当前的城市规划和发展模型忽略了环境如何支持一种通过积极生活，社会参与并为社区做出积极贡献的支持的地方感。在家里和社区中成功衰老，要求人们能够获得“资产和资源”来支持健康的衰老，例如运输，适当的住房，医疗服务以及休闲机会以及社交网络以及终身学习的机会。为了应对这些挑战，这项研究打算回答以下研究问题：老年人如何在不同的城市，社会和文化背景下体验衰老和地位感？城市环境可以通过哪些方式支持老年人的权利到位？如果年龄友好的城市和社区要支持居住在不同城市和文化背景的老年人的地点需求感，它们会是什么样？在回答这些问题时，这项研究基于现有的ESRC城市转型赠款（ES/N013220/1），以探索居住在英国（Edinburgh，Edinburgh，Manchester和Glasgow）和Brazil（Brazy）和Pelos（Pelos）和Porto的18个案例研究城市的18个社区（不同的密度和收入水平）中的老年人（有不同的密度和收入水平）的地位感如何经历。拟议的研究的目的是将城市环境中衰老的跨国理解扩大到印度的三个案例研究城市（德里，加尔各答，海得拉巴）。这将为您提供独特的见解，了解老年人如何在印度各种各样和变革性的城市环境中体验衰老和地位，提供知识交换的机会，允许在印度，英国和巴西的案例研究城市内外进行比较分析，并确定明确的政策途径，并确定我们将使用一系列方法与途径相同的方法，包括途径以及途径，包括二手访问的方法，包括二手访问的方法，并将其置于访问方面的途径。和社区地图练习以捕捉老年人的基于地点的需求。研究将采用以社区为基础的参与性方法，将所有利益相关者汇总在协作对话的过程中，并共同设计，以挑战在计划“为”而不是与“老年人”计划时存在的层次结构关系。结果将用于共同创建场所制造工具和资源，这些工具和资源对于在印度设计年龄友好的环境至关重要，这些环境在不同的文化，社会和福利环境中工作。发现将通过持续和结束的项目知识翻译活动传播给社区，决策者，从业者和学术观众。项目设计中内置了机会，以使来自印度，英国和巴西的研究人员聚集在一起交换发现，共享方法论见解并塑造研究过程。
