The International Union for the Scientific Study of Population (IUSSP) Committee on Longevity and Health was formed in 1999. Its initial objectives were to study human longevity, the dynamics of health transitions, the emergence and proliferation of centenarians, and demographic-epidemiological projections, to develop implications for the forecast of future health status.
