Description

This book contains a collection of studies that have been�conducted among older residents in Singapore. Different methods, from surveys to�crowd sourcing, have been used to investigate the older adults� lived experiences and social participation�in the residential environment. The findings reveal that older residents interact with the built�environment in ways that reflect their changing capabilities and lifestyles. Since the built environment � where we live and go � can have an important impact on our daily lives,�especially among older people, understanding these�experiences and perceived needs is important to help older individuals age within their community.Typham this is the title: Ageing and the Built Environment in Singapore
