AAA and ISO have joined forces in a united effort to develop ISO 25553 Smart Multigenerational Neighbourhoods. This standard framework aims to:

Accelerate construction of a new breed of age-friendly housing in ‘smart’ socially supportive multigenerational neighbourhoods, employing innovative technologies, business and service models, to improve health and wellbeing, protect the environment, and reduce the financial burden on Citizens and State.

Working in partnership with UN-Habitat, AAA and ISO aim to evolve the proposition through consultation across seven broad categories: industry and commerce; government; labour; academic and research bodies; non-governmental organisations, together with end-users, older adults in particular.
