The Housing Finance and Development Centre of Finland (ARA) and Tampereen University have started a new project on Future Senior Housing to figure out current practices and possible future develpments.
The project has many partners from the field, who together work to find future ways to arrange and build senior housing.
Background
Finland's people age rapidly and there is need for new ways to arrange senior housing. When creating housing and services, we need to take into consideration various questions and actors, such as municipalities, service providers and builders.
Goal
The goals of the project:
- Find good models and practices for senior housing, that work in practice.
- Create new design solutions that are flexible and versatile.
- New models and technologies for service production.
- Suggestions for the development of senior housing surveillance and norms.
- International senior housing models and their applications in Finland.
Impact
The project produces foreknowledge on future senior housing that is age friendly. It also creates concepts and operating models for senior housing. By co-developing it produces suggestions for the surveillance and regulation of senior housing.
