India faces a dual challenge: millions of seniors need quality home care while young people, especially those from rural cities, struggle to find meaningful employment.
In this episode of “Changing Ageing in Asia”, we follow Life Circle, a Hyderabad-based startup training rural youth as certified eldercare professionals and transforming caregiving into a respected healthcare career. Life Circle is a 2025 winner of the DBS Foundation Impact Beyond Award.
As families welcome trained caregivers into their homes, seniors are able to stay active, engaged and central to family life – while young people gain stable careers and long-term opportunity.
This episode asks a powerful question: Can ageing societies become engines of employment, dignity and purpose?
Watch the episode to see how Life Circle is turning caregiving into a pathway for employment and resilience, while helping seniors age with comfort and dignity.
