How does this help?
Built with years of research for maximum impact
Validity
ACT methods have been translated, adapted, and validated for use in more than 50 countries across the world, with high acceptability and reliability across systems, cultures, and resources.
Positive Impact
Use of ACT methods have been shown to deliver significant improvements in independence and wellbeing within three months, with modelling data suggesting an average gain of one extra quality life year in the longer-term.
Reduced Costs
Uptake of ACT methods in local systems reduces adverse health events such as falls and hospitalisations, with an average lifetime reduction in long-term care costs of about 50,000 USD. Global uptake by 100 million older people could generate 50 trillion USD savings for the global economy.
Population Insight

De-identified data extracted to the ACT Global Research Database provides benchmarked information about the concerns, priorities, risks, quality of life and resource utilisation requirement of older populations.
