Al Ali added that participants ranked health services as their top priority, followed by services under the Social Forum and My Happiness
Forum. Many confirmed that current offerings have had a positive impact on their physical, mental, and social well-being.
Additionally, social media emerged as the most effective communication tool for engaging with the Foundation, ahead of traditional
channels like phone and website.

Key recommendations from the forums include maintaining the momentum of community engagement, prioritizing core services aligned with
elderly preferences, and expanding the use of digital platforms to raise awareness and foster volunteerism among senior citizens. The
findings also encourage tailored program delivery to further promote social integration and respect for elderly contributions.

The Family Development Foundation reiterated its commitment to creating inclusive, sustainable services that ensure dignity and a high
quality of life for elderly residents. By placing senior citizens at the heart of decision-making processes, FDF continues to lead efforts
in policy innovation, social research, and community development that reflect genuine societal appreciation for the older generation.
