 In 1995, the World Health Organisation designated the Centre as a WHO Collaborating Centre for Healthy Aging. 

In 1997, the Centre became the  centre of the Mediterranean and Middle East Gerontological and Geriatric Association. 

In 2001, the Centre started forming part of a European consortium aimed at running the European Masters Programme in Gerontology (EuMaG) 

The Centre collaborates very closely with a number of University Institutes and Centres in the field of Ageing, throughout the world. 

Its international reputation can be witnessed by the high number of applications from foreign students received annually.

During the years 1990-2002, the Centre has attracted 206 students from 45 different countries to read for the Postgraduate Diploma. A number of foreign students have also successfully completed the Masters degree.
