Out and About: Sustainable Ways
for Seniors to Get Around
Tuesday, October 18, 2022 at 4 PM PDT via Zoom
In this webinar, Sasha Rodriguez of Better Environmentally Sound Transportation (BEST) will talk about active transportation options for seniors in British Columbia.
With 25% of British Columbians turning 65 in the next ten years, many will need and want alternatives to driving. As an organization with a long history of promoting sustainable transportation, BEST recognizes the significance of having discussions about driving cessation and alternative modes of transportation.
Their Seniors on the Move project engages seniors, health practitioners, transportation providers, municipalities, and others to better plan for age-related changes in transportation; remove existing barriers to mobility, and; introduce innovations that respond to population aging, social equity and inclusion, and climate change.

PRESENTER
Sasha Rodriguez
is a recent graduate of University of British Columbia with a background in urban forestry and green space management. During her undergraduate studies, she had the opportunity to research how to design and build more livable and resilient cities, and she noticed that cities were not being designed adequately for an aging population. She is now able to collaborate with a fantastic team at Better Environmentally Sound Transportation (BEST) as part of the Seniors on the Move (SOTM) initiative, which is a project led by seniors to improve and increase transportation options for older adults across the province.
