Kudos to @AustraliaUN for supporting a step forward at #OEWG13 in interests of older people and #agewithrights much work to now be done given lack of action over past 13 yrs @UNDESASocial @UN4Ageing @UNandAgeing

[Claudia Mahler, Dr. @DrClaudiaMahler]

A better world for older persons is a better world for all of us. We need a UN convention for the rights of older persons. Retweet to add your voice.

I'm pleased to announce that according to @MRI_Simmons, @AARP The Magazine remains America’s most-read magazine reaching 37.5 million readers. The ATM resonates especially with the 60+ readership which grew by 500K+ since last year! Congrats to Editor-in-Chief Bob Love & team!

By 2050, one in six people in the world will be aged 65 and over.

On 26 May, Human Rights Council president @FVillegasARG took part in a @UNITAR multi-agency webinar on strengthening the promotion & protection of the human rights of older people.

Age-based discrimination in employment is one of the main barriers faced by older persons.

We need to promote employment in old age and active ageing need to go hand in hand with universal and adequate social protection systems.

@MVR76 says language plays an important role in how we view and take care of long-term care residents. This is why OLTCA supports the person-centred language pledge, which looks at residents for their abilities. #TiLTC2021

The actor William Shatner became the oldest person to travel to space. The “Star Trek” star traveled to space with three other passengers on a mission that lasted about 10 minutes. Champagne corks popped. There was lots of laughter, high-spirited relief. https://t.co/usxXJKBDs7

A small yet important step as UN #HRC48 adopts significant resolution calling on member states to combat ageism, eliminate age discrimination and protect the rights of #OlderPersons @GAROP_Sec @GlobalAgeing #agewithrights @UN4Ageing @UN @UN_HRC @AustraliaUN

[Australian Human Rights Commission @AusHumanRights]

Thousands of older Australians experience elder abuse every year, sometimes from those closest to them. If you are concerned about someone you know, call the free and confidential National Elder Abuse phone line on 1800 ELDERHelp or 1800 353 374.

Friday, Oct. 1, is the United Nations International Day of Older Persons. The theme for #UNIDOP2021: “Digital Equity for All Ages.” The stereotype that older people lack digital competency isn’t just wrong, it’s hurtful. Let’s tell a new story about aging. #ReframingAging

[BallyCara @ballycara]

To celebrate #UNIDOP2021's theme 'Digital Equity for All Ages', our Digital Engagement Officer Rojan has reflected on his Tech Mentoring experiences in the most recent post on BallyCara's Blog.

Marcus Riley says that BallyCara's approach to healthy ageing starts with the person, they have a belief that no matter what age you are you can pursue your passions. They start engaging with older people earlier, when they are still independent #GAN2021

[Clement Coulston @clementc26]

.@MVR76 emphasizes how we must be self-reflective and evaluate our willingness to learn from AND with one another in order to expand reach. #GAN2021 @GlobalAgeing
