4 Summary of INOPA workshop, Sweden, September 16, 2005 The INOPA Challenge: Initiate Collaboration and Disseminate Knowledge A number of INOPA member countries are aging quickly (B, C, I, VN), whereas Sweden is already among the oldest countries in the world (> 20% over 65 years) shifting demographics provide unique opportunities for research need for effective health care strategies across contexts Aging research from high-income contexts can learn from lowincome foci on intervention, health service utilization, quality of life, and shaping health policy sharing research knowledge needs to be improved in all contexts Low-income contexts can benefit, for example, from high-income foci on risk factors and biomarkers biological vs. chronological age causes/mechanisms of morbidity, impact on functioning (e.g., cognitive, physical, etc.) The INOPA Challenge: Initiate Collaboration and Disseminate Knowledge aging is a complex interaction among biological, genetic, psychological, and social influences our research foci should reflect the central importance of the interaction theme planned collaborations will inform, and be informed by, research from each unique context (promoting dynamic as opposed to static contextual investigations) INOPA s mission will be akin to global/cultural epidemiology a cross-contextual initiative to help us identify universal (as well as contextually-unique) elements of health and aging

Policy makers, researchers, practitioners, from these organizations attended the workshop. There were three main themes of the workshop: Research and program findings and experiences to be presented and shared by the participating organizations. Reviewing the activities of the organizations dealing with Aging and identifying gaps in research and practice, how to reduce the gap, linking research to practice, how practitioners can make use of research findings and how researchers can learn more from the experience of the practitioners. Chalking out a future plan based upon need assessment of the practitioners, modify existing communication materials to make these user-friendly, devising a common slogan on aging for championing its cause, preparation of a brief position paper for wider dissemination and constructing a website.
