Mr. Gregor Sneddon is a visionary leader and a trusted voice in the global movement for healthy ageing. With a career rooted in justice, equity, and the inherent dignity of every person, he brings decades of experience at the intersection of ageing, humanitarian response, and community development.

An entrepreneur, artist, ordained in the Anglican Church of Canada, and civil society leader, Mr. Sneddon has led initiatives that span grassroots engagement to global advocacy. As former Executive Director of HelpAge Canada, he championed the rights of older people in underrepresented communities and forged cross-sector collaborations and networks to drive impact.

At the helm of the IFA, Mr. Sneddon guides the organization with humility, integrity, and a deep belief in the right to self-determination. He is committed to amplifying the voices of older people, particularly in regions where ageing outpaces development, and to ensuring that policy is grounded in lived experience. Under his leadership, the IFA is advancing a vision where ageing is seen not as a burden, but as a catalyst for more just, inclusive, and resilient societies.
