The Government of Saint Lucia seeks to review and update the National Policy of Older Persons and develop an implementation strategy and plan to improve the uptake of the policy. The policy aims to provide an integrated, comprehensive framework and guidelines to achieve active and healthy ageing across the life course, with the ultimate aim of improving the quality of life of persons as they age. This data collection tool will provide information for the development of the National Policy for Older Persons.
