Inclusion and exclusion criteria for record selection.

Inclusion		Exclusion
Study design
1.	Primary and secondary peer-reviewed articles Protocols and methodology articles. Grey literature (conference proceedings, pre-prints, dissertations, government reports, policy reports)	Editorials or letters to the editor Commentaries Concordance testing and prediction models
2.	Published from 31 October 2017 to 31 March 2022.The WHO introduced the WHO ICOPE framework by publishing a WHO report on the ICOPE guidelines for community interventions in October 2017. Hence, we searched for records published from 31 October 2017. The search was conducted in early April 2022, hence, we searched for published records up till 31 March 2022.	Published before 31 October 2017 or after 31 March 2022.
3.	In English or with English translations. We contacted the authors of non-English articles and engaged an information specialist to confirm that the records had no English translations. Abstracts from conference proceedings in English or with English translations could be included if it met the inclusion criteria of adoption of ICOPE. For full text articles that only had English-translated abstracts, the abstracts could be included if they met the inclusion criteria of adoption of ICOPE.	Not in English and had no English translations.
Population
4.	Older adults
Intervention
5.	We aimed to find literature that answers the research questions: Where are the ICOPE study teams and study sites around the world? How do these study teams and sites plan to apply or have applied it? Hence, the inclusion criteria were: The record mentions that the ICOPE framework was applied. All five ICOPE steps do not need to be applied. If only ICOPE Step 1 on IC screening is applied, the record can be included. Modifications to the ICOPE screening tool for IC can be accepted. Methodology and protocol articles that describe how the ICOPE framework was planned to be applied can be included.	The record is not on the ICOPE framework.
Comparator
6.	Records with and without controls can be included
Outcome
7.	There were no inclusion criteria on outcomes. This was supported by: Implementation of ICOPE being in the preliminary stages since the publication of WHO ICOPE guidelines in the end of 2017–2019. The review focused on synthesising literature on the application of ICOPE to date, and not on its effectiveness. Impact and effectiveness of ICOPE will be more meaningful to investigate later, after more study teams and sites have implemented it and for a longer time.
