The rate of #IncomeSupport payments across the board are seriously, woefully inadequate, regardless of age. We need to #RaiseTheRateForAll! #Auspol2023

75 years of celebrating #HumanRights. But what about #OlderPeople? By 2050, 1 in 5 of us will be over 60. United Nations failure to act on older people fails us all.

Opening session of #OEWGA14. The most comprehensive and sustainable means of addressing the shortcomings of the existing human rights system would be the establishment of an international legally binding instrument dedicated to the protection of the human rights of #olderpersons
