The numbers of older refugees are increasing!

Whoever, wherever, whenever: everyone has the right to seek safety!

As the world’s population grows older and more urban, cities must decide how to adapt. Ageing populations need to be part of the debate about urban development.

Raising our voice against the criminal injustice faced by the elderly is what required on World elder Abuse Awareness Day.

We look forward to potential shared opportunities & partnerships @UN4Ageing @HelpAge @IE_OlderPersons @FriendsElderly

#WEAAD2022

[Claudia Mahler, Dr. @DrClaudiaMahler]

Today is the #WEAAD! All forms of violence, abuse and neglect against #olderwomen must be ended and the gaps in the current #humanrights framework must be closed to provide better protection.

[AfricanNGOs @africanngos]

#WorldElderAbuseAwarenessDay, 15 June – highlights the significance of elder abuse as a health and human rights issue. With a growing global population of elderly people, abuse of the elderly is a serious problem. 1 in 6 people aged over 60 suffers from abuse #WEAAD2022

[Elderly Network Foundation @NetworkElderly]

In extreme cases, in many communities, older women can be accused of 'witchcraft' in an attempt to steal land and money from widows. Once accused of witchcraft, a woman may be threatened, beaten, and killed. @KNdieli @unwomenuganda @UN_Women @HelpAge #OlderWomen #ElderlyNetwork

[Elderly Network Foundation @NetworkElderly]

It’s often assumed that gender-based violence is something only younger women experience. However,@NetworkElderly we know that #olderwomen are subject to all types of violence, abuse and neglect. Psychological abuse,financial abuse, neglect,sexual violence&physical violence.

[Elderly Network Foundation @NetworkElderly]

In #olderage, women have experienced and continue to experience multiple inequalities – in the workplace, in the household, in pay and opportunity and respect.

In our country, #OlderWomen carry out work with little pay or no choice over what they do, and often without support or recognition. @UN_Women @unwomenuganda @KNdieli @HelpAge @JanetMuseveni @AnitahAmong

#IncomeSecurity
Whatever our work history, gender, disability or position in society, we all need a reliable, adequate income as we get older. With a secure income, we can contribute to our communities and have a good quality of life. @GovUganda @Parliament_Ug @Moglsd_UG
