世界人口正在老龄化，就像我们一样。随着我们进入“超高龄社会”时代¹⁾，

政府、社区和商业需要适应这一变化。为此，ISO建立了新的技术委员会。

2017年，全球范围内60岁及以上的人口数量是1980年的两倍多，预计到2050前，会再翻一番，达到近21亿²⁾。社会人口统计数据不断变化，为社会的方方面面包括医疗保健和地方公交系统带来了压力和挑战，同时也带了很多机遇。ISO/TC 314技术委员会—老龄化社会最

近成立，目标是为一系列领域制定标准、提供解决方案，以应对人口老龄化带来的挑战同时利用其带来的机遇。

来自ISO的英国成员，BSI的Nele Zgavc是ISO/TC 314的秘书，她表示老年痴呆、预防性护理、老龄化劳动力及技术和无障碍环境只是委员会建议制定标准的部分领域。“老龄化社会具有全球性影响”她说，“随着人口老龄化，为了全社会的利益，政府和服务供应商必须高效地

迎合顾客的需要。为了提供高质量服务以及把控老龄化社会中的机遇，我们急需制定相应的标准。”

ISO/TC 314是ISO在这一领域广泛开展工作的成果，包括制定国际研讨会协议IWA 18 老龄化社会中以社区为基础、综合终身的医疗保健服务框架标准，在此协议指导下建立了ISO关于老龄化社会战略顾问组（SAG）。鉴于认识到该领域范围宽广，SAG的成立旨在确认需求、

决定战略方向和未来该领域中的标准化范围。

ISO/TC 314目前由来自30个不同国家的专家组成，包括以前参与过战略顾问组事务和制定IWA 18的专家。

Growing old gracefully with a new ISO technical committee for ageing societies

The world’s population is ageing, just like us. As we enter the era of “super-aged societies”1), governments, communities and businesses need to adapt. A new ISO technical committee has just been formed to help.

In 2017, the number of people aged 60 years or over worldwide was more than twice as big as in 1980, and it is expected to double again by 2050 to reach nearly 2.1 billion²⁾. The changing demographics of our society brings with it pressures and challenges ranging from everything to healthcare to the local bus. But opportunities, too, are rife. The recently formed ISO technical committee ISO/TC 314, Ageing societies aims to develop standards and solutions across a wide range of areas, to tackle the challenges posed as well as harness the opportunities that ageing populations bring.

ISO/TC 314 Secretary Nele Zgavc from BSI, ISO’s member for the UK, said dementia, preventative care, ageing workforces, technologies and accessibility are just some of the areas of standardization that the committee proposes to work on. “Ageing societies have global implications,” she said. “Governments and service providers need to effectively cater to the needs of their populations as they age for the benefit of society as a whole. There is a crucial need for standards to support this in order to provide a high-quality level of service and harness the opportunities that ageing societies hold.”

ISO/TC 314 comes as a result of extensive work in this area by ISO, including the development of International Workshop Agreement IWA 18, Framework for integrated community-based life-long health and care services in aged societies, which led to the creation of the ISO Strategic Advisory Group (SAG) on Ageing Societies. Recognizing the enormous breadth of the subject, the SAG was formed to confirm the need and determine the strategic direction and scope of future standardization in this area.

ISO/TC 314 is currently composed of experts from 30 different countries, including those previously involved in the SAG and in the development of IWA 18.
