Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To pilot a digital health technologies ecosystem known as project SingaporeWALK (Wearables and Apps for Community Living and Knowledge) that build capacity in older adults, senior center managers, health coaches, and caregivers in using health technologies (eg, wearables, apps, exergames) collaboratively in a gamified way for active aging. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The SingaporeWALK ecosystem was set up through 3 initiatives: (1) co-developing technologies with stakeholders; (2) raising digital literacy and capacity building; and (3) cultivating community and intergenerational bonding for active aging through gamified technology use. RESULTS: Significant improvements in older adults' self-reported physical and mental health post-intervention were observed. DISCUSSION: The SingaporeWALK project demonstrated that digital health technologies, when designed with inclusivity and community engagement, could significantly empower active aging. CONCLUSION: This project underscored the necessity of a collective and community-centered approach to maximize the efficacy of digital health technologies to support older adults in active aging globally.
