AHWIN DIALOGUES

Staff from AHWIN's NPO partner organization, the Japan Center for International Exchange (JCIE) traveled to South Korea for a series of site visits and meetings organized by Dr. Donghee Han, director of the Research Institute of Science for the Better Living of the Elderly (RISBLE) and a member of the international advisory committee for the Healthy Aging Prize for Asian Innovation (HAPI).

More than 100 people joined in person to celebrate the winners of the 2022 Healthy Aging Prize for Asian Innovation (HAPI). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, 2022 marked our first opportunity to celebrate our award winners together in person and to introduce leading innovations from around the region.

The 2022 AHWIN Forum focused on regional efforts to translate data and innovations into better policies, products, and programs for healthy aging and care for older persons, and discussed best practices in designing age-friendly cities that enable people to stay active and connected and foster solidarity among generations. Winners of the 2022 Healthy Aging Prize for Asian Innovation were also recognized at a ceremony following the Forum.
