Résumé :
State of the world's older people 2002 brings together research, statistics and older
people's own views to provide insight into the ageing world. Data from Africa, Asia,
the Caribbean, Latin America and eastern and central Europe highlights the scale of
demographic change and shows that many older women and men, despite their best
efforts, end their lives in chronic poverty.
This report shows that older people, if supported, can continue to contribute to their
families and participate fully in their communities. It outlines the policy changes
and practical actions necessary to ensure that older people's rights are respected and
resources are made available to meet their basic needs.
