Resumen

Las ciudades amigables con los adultos mayores son espacios inclusivos y accesibles cuya finalidad es garantizar la calidad de vida a medida que se envejece. El objetivo del trabajo fue identificar investigaciones que median el impacto de los dominios de las ciudades amigables en la calidad de vida de la población adulta mayor. Se realizó una búsqueda en Web of Science y Scopus utilizando palabras claves en inglés “age friendly cities and quality of life” encontrando 105 artículos. Se utilizó el protocolo PRISMA para la selección y análisis de los artículos. El análisis confirmó que son muy pocos artículos los que abordan la finalidad de las ciudades amigables, el impacto en la calidad de vida de los adultos mayores.
