Venue: Niigata and Hiroshima
Register interestAlongside the G7 Hiroshima Summit 2023 in May, the ILC-UK is organising high-level side events in Japan, one in Niigata, and the other in Hiroshima. Please see the details below for each and how to register.
G7 high-level side event in Niigata: Healthy ageing and prevention
Date: Wednesday 10 May 2023
Time: 2.00pm – 3.30pm (IST), followed by a reception to 5.00pm
Location: Niigata, Japan
Alongside this year’s meeting of G7 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors, the ILC will be holding a high-level side event as an opportunity to set out priorities for healthy ageing.
In 2019 the ILC hosted similar successful events at the G20 in Japan. This event in Niigata will bring together high-level stakeholders from across the Ministerial delegations, business and the third sector to identify solutions to the common challenges of demographic change.
At the G7 this year, we will disseminate our work on Healthy Ageing and Prevention Index. This global Index ranks countries on key healthy ageing and preventative health metrics and finds the UK ranked 18th globally and fourth out of the G7 nations. The potential ‘longevity dividend’ of improving prevention and supporting longer and healthier working lives is a key opportunity for Finance Ministers across the G20. Even investing as little as 0.1% in prevention can result in 9% increased spending by adults aged 60 or over. The economic benefits of harnessing this longevity dividend could be enormous as populations continue to increase and grow older.
G7 high-level side event in Hiroshima: Covid recovery and Prevention
Date: Thursday 18 May 2023
Time: 6.30pm – 8.30pm (IST)
