The purpose of this study is to give an overview of the extent, range, and nature of existing studies on active ageing in marginal areas. This overview will enable researchers, policymakers, and communities to understand the key challenges and opportunities related to improving older adults’ quality of life in marginal areas. This takes the form of a scoping review in which Arksey’s and O’Malley’s methodology is adopted. A total of 41 contributions were considered relevant for our purposes. The studies selected show that the key issues concerning active ageing in marginal areas are the following: i) quality of life, ii) care needs, and iii) social inclusion.
