Active Aging Week

Active Aging Week October 5-11, 2026. Initiated in 2003 by the International Council on Active Aging, presented by Humana.

Initiated in 2003 by the International Council on Active Aging® (ICAA), Active Aging Week takes place each year during the last week of September. The weeklong campaign calls attention to and wholeheartedly celebrates the positivity of aging today. It showcases the capabilities of older adults as fully participating members of society and spotlights the role models that lead the way. Active Aging Week challenges society’s diminished expectations of aging by showing that, regardless of age or health conditions, adults over 50 can live as fully as possible in all areas of life—physical, social, spiritual, emotional, intellectual, vocational and environmental. The objective of the annual health-promotion event is to give as many older adults as possible the means to experience wellness activities and exercise in a safe, supportive environment. It also promotes the benefits of healthier, more active lifestyles across the life span. In 2015, the observance will be held September 27–October 3.

Did you know that higher levels of tree canopy cover may help prevent injurious pedestrian falls? A new study led by researchers at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health in New York City revealed that during summer months, streets and sidewalks where pedestrians fell and experienced an injury were less likely to be shaded by trees than matched control locations.
