Abstract

It has been a year since the Centre for Research on Successful Ageing (ROSA) was established in place of the Centre for Research on the Economics of Ageing (CREA). While it was a year full of challenges (least of all the COVID-19 pandemic), the team at ROSA adapted and worked hard to overcome these challenges, and we are grateful for the opportunity to share this annual report that presents a snapshot into the centre’s work to better understand the ‘ageing Singaporean’. Much of the work that has been done in the first year has been focused on establishing a good foundation, both on an organizational and academic front, that would enable the team to better study the ‘ageing Singaporean’ in the years to come. That being said, on an academic front, the team was also able to generate insights into older adult well-being during the pandemic using data from the SLP. This report will thus cover how the centre has advanced in both areas to better understand ageing in Singapore, and also present findings on the ‘ageing Singaporean’ during COVID-19.
