Theme:Resilience of Older Persons in a Changing World

The United Nations International Day of Older Persons (UNIDOP) 2022 will highlight “The Resilience and Contributions of Older Women” in successfully navigating today’s myriad of global challenges. UNIDOP 2022 was a call to action and opportunity, with globally representative older women, parliamentarians, and UN representatives offering multi-stakeholder dialogue on the resilience of living through and responding to climate disaster, conflict, or pandemic, experiencing and managing the physical and emotional disruption to losses of family, income, and social connectedness. Modern Thinkers Foundation embarked on a multistakeholder dialogue that included efforts toward inclusion of older persons, protection of their human rights, and contributions to sustainable development.
