12:43 pm
super ageing population, with one third of the whole country aged over 65, society needs to adapt. at the university of tokyo, this professor is studying old age. we need to think about how we design infrastructure for 100 years of life. society was built when the population was much younger. we need to redesign the community, to meet the needs of a highly aged society. with funding from the japanese government, she developed this scheme. along with flexible job sharing, living spaces have been redesigned for elderly residents. this public housing has been rebuilt. translation: i could not go home without using stairs before. but i can get up you're now by using
