In Indian cities, ageing populations face mobility risks due to traffic congestion & inequities. A new study by @prajwal_nagesh & colleagues in #Bengaluru highlights the need for age-friendly transport policies that consider these interconnected issues. https://t.co/8e3VxqLILv

[Martin Hyde @HydeM1976]

Fascinating new research shows that the biomedicalisation of ageing policies depends on how ageing is institutionalised & the dominance of health experts in policymaking. https://t.co/uEF7lsSPht

Sounds fascinating! Thanks for sharing. I guess there is a link to Philip Oldenburg's article on violence and son preference in UP - The Bermuda Triangle in UP where girls go missing followed by Dreze-Khera article on patriarchy, homicides and gender imbalances.

We need more data & better use of data esp. to inform policies on the most marginalized groups. To ensure no one is left behind, disaggregated data must be made available locally, including data on specific population groups that tend to get excluded: @DiagneAndrea, @UNFPA🇮🇳 Rep.
