“The timing is critical and now is the time to act decisively and strategically!”
Dr Kiran Rabheru, New Chair of the Global Alliance for the Rights of Older People

COVID-19 has focused the eyes of the world on the experiences of older people like no other event in recent history. With this momentous shock comes a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to call out elder abuse and ageism globally, and improve fairness, rights and dignity in later life.

Join our expert international panel to hear how COVID-19 shines a light on ageism and elder abuse in our communities and institutions, and the social, economic and rights-based tools we can use to combat elder abuse.
