About that illustration ... I've got no problem with the baby or the cane, but why are half the figures children? The average life expectancy of a woman in the US is 80. Where are those decades of being women in the world? @AgingMeg this needs a fix. @theriveterco

Our member Mr. Filip Hamro (Finland) closed the last session of the multi-stakeholder meeting, urging Member States to adopt a UN Convention on the Rights of Older Persons, highlighting the need to include grassroot organisations to ensure that older persons are not left behind.

Researchers @syd_health and @KollingINST want to know your #goalsofcare regarding your medications and health. We invite older adults (65 and over) or their carers to take part in this study. Older adults redcap.sydney.edu.au/surveys… Carers redcap.sydney.edu.au/surveys…

My book DINNER WITH THE FOUNDING FATHERS notes that NZ tried to join Federation of States in 1901 but withdrew when our 6 States refused to give Indigenous people status #Maoris had rightly gained in Treaty of 1840. Opponents of #UluruStatement are still in denial 120 years later

"Anti-#ageism campaigners say navigating the process can be overwhelming for some older people.” This isn't about age. It's about making apps #accessible and—as the headline makes clear—affordable. #ableism theguardian.com/money/2022/a…

What you permit, you promote. Let us not promote egregious violations of human rights violations of older people. A UN convention on the rights of older people is urgently needed. @GAROP_Sec @ILCCanada @DrDebanjanBane1 @BobRae48 @JustinTrudeau @IPA_Online @WPA_Psychiatry @PEAKMD
What gets measured gets improved and we don't measure the impact of ageism. There are no explicit guarantees against ageism and age discrimination and no clear obligations on States to eliminate it says @krabheru of @GAROP_Sec

A board game about…dying? It may seem macabre to play a game about death, but when was the last time you talked out loud about how you’d like to die? Enter ‘Carked It!’, a board game by @ChangingAgeing in partnership with us. Support it on Kickstarter tinyurl.com/29tfsd5c

Everyone is aging, and yet #ageism is the most widespread form of discrimination. @Ageing_Better aims to change that. Check out their brand new short film, "What is Ageism?"-- youtube.com/watch?v=3nrF5OFe…

“If there were more middle-aged women telling middle-aged women stories, then we would have lots of different experiences represented... And think of how, if younger people saw women in their 50s as badasses on TV, it could help with #ageism.”
