Abstract
As we continue our look at inclusive approaches to community empowerment, Professors Ryan Woolrych and Judith Sixsmith highlight the key challenges and considerations for designing urban environments for and with older people. This draws on their current cross-national research which seeks to understand the lived experiences of older adults residing in cities in the UK and Brazil.
