Initiative Labarge sur le vieillissement optimal
Le Portail sur le vieillissement optimal de McMaster fait partie de l'initiative d'application des connaissances de l'Université McMaster qui est soutenue financièrement par l'Initiative Labarge sur le vieillissement optimal.
Cette initiative d'application des connaissances met l'accent sur les initiatives soutenant la participation des parties prenantes (telles que des panels de citoyens, des dialogues avec les parties prenantes, des forums et des débats publics) et l'engagement avec les médias. Ces initiatives se concentrent spécifiquement sur le Canada.
McMaster/Labarge Optimal Aging Knowledge Translation Enterprise
During the first 5 years of the McMaster Optimal Aging Portal, our stakeholder engagement work included panels, dialogues and public talks funded by the Labarge Optimal Aging Initiative as part of our work. Currently, dialogues and panels are held by the McMaster Forum and public talks through MIRA.Citizen Panels
These panels give older citizens, caregivers and those interested in optimal aging a voice in how governments and society can and should support optimal aging. We do this face-to-face with citizens drawn from the local region and across the province and use technology to involve residents across the country. We prepare citizen briefs on pressing issues related to optimal aging, convene citizen panels, summarize what we learned, and disseminate the citizen brief and panel summary through the McMaster Health Forum.
Public talks & debates
High-profile speakers shared what they know and debated important issues related to optimal aging. Watch recordings on the McMaster Health Forum YouTube channel.
Stakeholder dialogues
Policymakers, stakeholders and researchers deliberate about ways to address the needs of the aging population. We gather key participants to meet and discuss issues with local, provincial and national areas of focus. We prepare evidence briefs, convene stakeholder dialogues, summarize what we learned, and disseminate the evidence briefs and dialogue summaries through the McMaster Health Forum.
