ABOUT THE COALITION
The Healthy Ageing and Prevention Coalition is a group of advocates at the forefront of the healthy ageing and global health debate.

- Respond to key policy developments and calls to action and hold governments to account.
- Influence change at the global and national level to ensure prevention is at the heart of global health policy.
