Whether in Europe or Africa, older persons worldwide would benefit from having their own UN convention.
I am delighted to welcome Andrew Kavala, African Union Commissioner for the Rights Older Persons, and Jürgen Focke from Help Age Deutschland to @dimr.bsky.social
@helpage.bsky.social
I am back from Doha and I want to share my impressions with you all: The Political Declaration of #WSS2 mentions older persons several times, a big success for older persons' human rights! I am looking forward to seeing the implementation
