The activities were held as part of the phased implementation of the one-month national awareness campaign to enhance the health of elderly people under the theme “Your presence.... brings health and wellness.”

The awareness-raising events also falls under the umbrella of the integrated national plan launched by the Ministry in collaboration with partners to support elderly health, promote the concept of healthy ageing, strengthen family and community bonds with this group, and reinforce the values of solidarity and cohesion during the Year of Community.

Implemented by the Ministry's representative offices, the activities aimed to heighten awareness about healthy ageing and encourage older adults to take a proactive approach to their wellbeing.
