I was delighted to highlight all of the positive work of @INTGenderChamps at the Champions meeting hosted by @CanadaGeneva -“This is not an easy time to be a gender champion. But it is the right time to be a gender champion. D&I are not trends, they build fairer societies”.

[UN Human Rights Council @UN_HRC]

The root cause are "ageism, prejudices and assumptions based on age prevalent in society," @IE_OlderPersons Claudia Mahler told the @UN Human Rights Council.

[Claudia Mahler, Dr. @DrClaudiaMahler]

It was a pleasure to discuss my recent report, legal capacity of older persons and informed consent at the @bagso_de side event. It was an enriching dialogue about existing challenges, but also good examples. 1 thing is certain: Age should not be a reason to restrict capacity!
