International Day of Older Persons
Celebrate our older rights champions!
Statement by UNFPA Executive Director Dr. Natalia Kanem on the Occasion of the International Day of Older Persons, 1 October 2018
One in nine persons today is aged 60 or older. This is projected to increase to one in five by 2050.
Older people are often seen as burdens who no longer contribute to the economy, but nothing could be further from reality. Older people everywhere are making enormously important contributions to their families, communities and society more generally.
