Abstract

China has stepped into the depth of aging, to economic development and social security has brought great challenges. The acceleration of urbanization has activated the new demands of the elderly groups in China. The imbalance of endowment resources and the shortage of supply capacity have become the important factors that reduce the sense of demand acquisition of the elderly groups. However, the existing research mainly focuses on the policy, financial, intellectual and other resources to deal with the basic demands of the elderly, resulting in the elderly’s active health demands to a certain extent ignored. Therefore, exploring the coping strategies of the elderly’s active health demands has become the driving force to stimulate domestic consumption and the key to solve such social problems. This paper take a example in Sichuan Province sorts out the historical process of the transformation of the elderly from traditional demands to active, deconstructs the specific content of the active health demands of the elderly, and puts forward corresponding strategies based on the demands, in order to provide theoretical reference for the government and other relevant departments to formulate policies.
