Strengthening the Health Promotion Center for Ban Chang Community

As proposed in the Global age-friendly cities guide, the WHO age-friendly cities framework proposes eight interconnected domains that can assist in identifying and addressing barriers to older people's well-being and participation. These domains cross over and communicate with one another to facilitate easy and safe access to public spaces, areas of social engagement, entertainment, and employment. Ban Chang district in Rayong province is located close to U-Tapao international airport. According to the EEC analysis, the population will grow. The growth will mostly be attributed to the working population, however, the World Health Organization (WHO) analysis shows once this population ages, the elderly population will grow and be a larger proportion than the working-age population. Therefore, interested and want to develop a small town far from the capital to be a livable city that can support the elderly. Because the Thep Jinda market area most of them are residences and from interviews with people in the community, most people have lived for more than 60 years. In the future, from the analysis, the elderly will be more. Therefore, use the concept of an age-friendly city to develop and apply it to Ban Chang city, Rayong province to increase accessibility and support for the elderly.
