Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the undertaking and development of the elderly according to key performance indicators to be able to reflect the performance as determined in the measures and strategies of the Action Plan for the Elderly, phase 2 (A.D. 2002-2022), the 2^nd Revision A.D. 2020, phase 4 (A.D. 2017-2022). The study was conducted based on a mixed method. The Action Plan for the Elderly, phase 2 (A.D. 2002-2022), the 2^nd Revision A.D. 2020, phase 4 (A.D. 2017-2022), contains 5 strategies (57 indices), and the total indices of the strategies (4 indices) amount to 61 indices. It was found that 24 out of 57 indices, or 42.11%, passed the evaluation. Two out of the 4 indices were not evaluated, and 2 did not pass the assessment. It was found that index 35, which pertains to public places with facilities including walkways, ramps, and restrooms, in parks, train stations, temples, and fresh markets, is the index with the highest deviation from the standard. These findings will contribute to planning and preparation for improving the quality of life for the elderly.
