Abstract

The development of an Active and Healthy Ageing (AHA) society is gaining more and more interest all over the world. It is worth mentioning that by 2050, worldwide, one in six people will be over 65 years of age, which represents a drastic increase over today's proportion [1], [2]. Consequently, several questions also arise from the perspective of the public healthcare system. The most challenging ones are surely: 'What kind of health and social systems should be developed to assure the deserved quality of life of an ageing population and which solutions may be developed to such aim?'
