ABSTRACT:
This study aims to promote healthy aging by identifying innovative solutions through collaboration between companies, universities, government, and society to develop public policies focused on longevity. Using systematic reviews, we analyzed interventions and practices to promote the biopsychosocial well-being of older adults. The results indicate that collaborative engagement and the implementation of innovative strategies are key to addressing the challenges of aging. In view of the reflections on public policies for healthy aging, it is possible to draw some important conclusions. Public policies must take a holistic approach, considering not only physical health but also the emotional, social, and cognitive aspects of aging. Thus, we conclude that innovative and collaborative strategies are essential to promote the well-being of older adults. This includes the development of programs and services that encourage social participation, access to physical and cultural activities, and the promotion of mental health. The use of evidence-based methodologies, such as systematic reviews, is essential to identify effective practices and interventions to promote healthy aging.
