Background: This article examines the intersection of two global trends, super-diversity and globalized aging, in the context of urban communities. Super-diversity refers to the impact of changing immigration patterns on social, health, and economic systems. Interdisciplinary by definition, gerontological social work practice bridges macro, mezzo, and micro modalities, as well as professional and disciplinary false divides.

Objective: The authors aim to highlight how urban gerontology practice can benefit from reaching across borders and boundaries. Goals include identifying best practices of care that can serve as models in a range of environments.

Methods: The authors used a qualitative case study approach. Data collection consisted of individual interviews and focus groups.

Findings: Findings suggest the ongoing relevance of ecological theory in the context of identifying best practices in social work gerontology.

Discussion: Through the lens of super-diversity and globalized aging, the authors examine processes and impacts at the intersection of migration, advanced age, and care systems in the urban context. Findings indicate the need to further de-colonize aging care.
