Lancet Reg Health West Pac
October 2024
Background: The Pacific Island country of Vanuatu is at the early stages of demographic ageing. The government is yet to develop a strategic approach to optimize the health and wellbeing of older indigenous Vanuatu residents (ni-Vanuatu).
Methods: Using policy mapping and semi-structured interviews with 42 ni-Vanuatu, this research aimed to explore the current policy context surrounding ageing in Vanuatu and the priorities of older adults to inform preliminary steps to develop a national response to healthy ageing.
