Shared Action for Healthy Ageing in Nepal
The Changunarayan Municipality, in collaboration with the Nepal Red Cross Society (NRCS) Bhaktapur District Chapter and the Swiss Red Cross (SRC), is implementing the SAHARA Healthy Ageing Project (2024–2026) to enhance age-friendly services under the Age-Friendly City (AFC) framework. A baseline survey in 2024 identified gaps in senior citizen satisfaction, prompting this follow-up mini-survey in mid-2025 to evaluate progress and refine methodologies ahead of a comprehensive year-end review. The survey covered 100 older adults (60+ years), randomly selected from 611 individuals, who had previously been reached by the Red Cross and Municipality volunteers with discussion or education on healthy ageing behaviours.
