Why it matters in the plan
Part Eleven treats elderly care and the silver economy as a development domain shaped by demographic change and public wellbeing. The chapter’s focus includes services, products, community support, and closer integration between medical care and eldercare.
This is not an industrial category in the narrow sense. It is a service and social infrastructure lens that includes adapted products, care provision, health support, and the ways older adults participate in the economy and community life.
What the plan calls for
- Improve elderly-care services across home, community, and institutional settings.
- Develop age-friendly products and the broader silver economy.
- Promote integration between medical care, health services, and eldercare.
