The local environment plays a vital role in later life, influencing the inclusivity and responsiveness of communities to the challenges of ageing. This study examines civic engagement as a form of social capital that promotes social sustainability and enhancing quality of life among adults aged 50 and over. Using data from Wave 8 (2020) of the Survey of Health, Ageing, and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) across ten European countries (n = 19,445), the study focuses on the role of transnational ageing and age-friendly policy as a key dimension of the local environment. The findings reveal a positive relationship between civic engagement and quality of life, underscoring the importance of policy frameworks that support both social and environmental sustainability. Our results highlight the need for policy action and the creation of resilient, age-friendly communities. Our study makes a significant contribution to the literature on civic engagement of older population by using the Active Ageing Index (AAI) as structural context. The AAI offers a novel analytical tool by providing a multidimensional understanding of older people’s contributions to society and the environmental conditions that facilitate active ageing. Future research should incorporate rural urban differences to ensure equal access to resources for all older adults.

Yerel çevre, yaşlanmanın getirdiği zorluklarla başa çıkmada toplulukların kapsayıcılığını etkileyerek ileri yaşam döneminde önemli bir rol oynar. Bu çalışma sivil katılımı 50 yaş ve üzeri nüfusta; sosyal sürdürülebilirliği teşvik eden ve yaşam kalitesini artıran anahtar rolde bir sosyal sermaye biçimi olarak incelemektedir. Avrupa Sağlık, Yaşlanma ve Emeklilik Araştırması’nın (SHARE) 8. Dalga (2020) verileri kullanılarak on Avrupa ülkesinde (n=19445) ulusötesi yaşlanma ve yerel çevrenin anahtar bir boyutu olarak yaş-dostu politikanın rolü değerlendirilmektedir. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre sivil katılımla yaşam kalitesi arasında pozitif ilişki vardır ve bu bulgu sosyal ve çevresel sürdürülebilirliği destekleyen politikaların önemine işaret etmektedir. Bulgular, sürdürülebilir politikalara ve dirençli, yaş-dostu topluluklara olan ihtiyacı vurgulamaktadır. Çalışmamız, Aktif Yaşlanma İndeksi’ni (AAI) yapısal bağlam olarak kullanarak yaşlı nüfusun sivil katılımı literatürüne önemli bir katkı sağlamaktadır. AAI, yaşlı bireylerin topluma katkılarını ve aktif yaşlanmayı mümkün kılan çevresel koşulları çok boyutlu bir bakışla inceleyerek yenilikçi bir analitik perspektif sunmaktadır. Gelecek araştırmalar, tüm yaşlı bireyler için kaynaklara adil erişimi sağlamak amacıyla kırsal ve kentsel bağlamları dikkate almalıdır.
