#Ageism can manifest in various ways, such as limited employment opportunities, unequal access to healthcare, stereotyping based on age-related characteristics, or dismissive attitudes towards the abilities and contributions of individuals of a certain age group.

Grateful for my meeting with H.E. Mr. Mohammad Sufiur Rahman, Representative of Bangladesh @BDPM_Geneva 🇧🇩 to @UNGeneva. We discussed ways to further ensure a life of dignity for #OlderPersons and my country report on #Bangladesh #HRC54; available here: https://t.co/q1lmd9DNZS

[UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency @Refugees]

52% of Rohingya refugees registered in Bangladesh are children.

They deserve the chance to achieve their dreams.

They need better access to education.

Share stories and experiences that combat #Ageism. Share personal experiences that challenge stereotypes, listen to and amplify the voices of older adults and support platforms that provide opportunities for older adults to share their stories. #TakeAction #StopAgeism

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Halfway to the 2030 #GlobalGoals deadline, the world is woefully off-track.

Weather, climate and water-related sciences can supercharge progress.

Uniting in science is key to ignite progress for people and planet.
