Global Roadmap for Healthy Longevity Report Summit: Enabling a Virtuous Cycle for Healthy Longevity in the U.S.

Global Roam

The National Academy of Medicine (NAM) and AARP hosted the "Global Roadmap for Healthy Longevity Report Summit: Enabling a Virtuous Cycle for Healthy Longevity in the U.S." on November 14.

The one-day symposium took place in Washington, D.C., and discussed how societies can take the recommendations from NAM's Global Roadmap for Healthy Longevity report and reap the benefits of global aging by creating healthy longevity. Healthy longevity is defined in the report as “the state in which years in good health approach the biological life span, with physical, cognitive, and social functioning, enabling well-being across populations.”

The meeting explored enablers of healthy longevity from multiple perspectives. Speakers and panelists included nationally known experts from news and media, policy, research and business who discussed the possibilities of overcoming barriers to healthy longevity.

Terry Fulmer, PhD, RN, FAAN, president of The John A. Hartford Foundation spoke during Session V: Health Systems.
