The Aspen Institute 9d ago

How is a culture of living to 100 co-created in places not traditionally viewed as models of longevity? Along the U.S.–Mexico border in South Texas, Methodist Healthcare Ministries and Blue Zones are listening, learning, and partnering with community members and leaders to help people live longer, better. This session explores what it means to amplify strengths and invest in communities where geography, infrastructure, and generations of underinvestment shape health outcomes. (Presented by Methodist Healthcare Ministries) Aspen Ideas: Health takes place on the Aspen Institute’s wondrous 40-acre campus in the Rocky Mountains from June 22-25, 2026. The three-day event, which has opened the renowned Aspen Ideas Festival since 2014, is where health’s biggest challenges meet its biggest thinkers. #AspenIdeasHealth #AspenIdeas For more information about Aspen Ideas: Health, visit https://www.aspenideas.org/health.
