Date: 26-28 September 2022

ADB and the Asian Development Bank Institute (ADBI) will jointly host an online international forum on elderly care system development to encourage dialogue, knowledge exchange from policy and specific program implementation, and discussion of future opportunities and challenges. The conference will consist of several keynote speeches, a case study of Yichang City, a south-south knowledge-sharing workshop and thematic workshops attended by high-profile speakers, sharing international practices. CAREC Institute, and other partners, will provide technical support to the forum and promote knowledge dissemination.
