Senior Living and Healthy Ageing

An Ageing World and the 60+ Living Economy

The world’s population is ageing rapidly. United Nations data indicate that growth in the older population will continue to exceed overall population growth. Increasing numbers aged over 80 are substantially raising demand for healthcare, care and daily living support.

By 2050, the global population aged 60 and above is expected to reach approximately two billion. Senior living centres, rehabilitation, home care, digital health and long-term care investment are consequently becoming strategic areas alongside healthcare.

Türkiye’s infrastructure, skilled workforce, cost advantages and location give it the potential to become a regional hub for elderly care and healthy ageing.

Elderly care is now an economic ecosystem connecting health tourism, property, insurance, technology and investment, as well as a social service.
