About UCPH-CARI
University of Copenhagen has initiated UCPH-CARI to contribute with solutions to the complex challenges we face as an ageing society. The initiative stands on the legacy of the Center for Healthy Aging, and it embraces all scientific disciplines of the university. Our working principles are based in interdisciplinary and societal engagement and collaboration.
UCPH-CARI is an initiative created by researchers from across the faculties of the University of Copenhagen. We offer coordination, support and development of projects that contribute to realising its vision.
