In 2015, the world reaffirmed its commitment to sustainable development by endorsing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 SDGs (2030 Agenda). To reach older people – an important, heterogeneous and growing population – and to create visibility in global and national policy and accountability mechanisms, a closer examination is needed of the kinds of data collection mechanisms and methods, and types of data collected to measure each SDG indicator relevant for older persons, including existing levels of disaggregation, analysis and dissemination. This WHO report is co-sponsored by the United Kingdom Office of National Statistics and the Ghana Statistical Service and reflects one of the major outputs for the Titchfield City Group on Ageing and Age-disaggregated Data Conceptual and Analytical Working Group. The report provides concrete examples of indicators and learnings from 20 National Statistics Offices (NSOs) on SDG indicators relevant for older people that are already being collected. Shared experiences from NSOs around the world demonstrate that disaggregation of data is possible, and that this information is useful to indicate the diverse experiences of older persons.

World Health Organization (WHO)’s work on the life course – connecting healthy development and healthy ageing – aims to extend learning on healthy ageing and connect it to other efforts to improve people’s abilities and capacities, such as supports for early child development. This perspective considers the well-being of the whole person, not simply a focus on illness or disease. The third Life Course Network meeting followed two previous meetings in June and December 2022. The WHO Department of Maternal, Newborn, Child and Adolescent Health and Ageing (MCA) hosted a hybrid meeting in Geneva, 28–30 November 2023, with over 40 experts leading eight working groups of 200 individuals from life course research centres, other academics, policy-makers, civil society and representatives from the six WHO regional offices and other WHO staff, attending the meeting in person. Working groups and the MCA Life Course team prepared and discussed 18 project papers, including a draft WHO-wide framework on putting a life course approach into practice. The meeting comprised six sessions to take stock of progress and facilitate learning across working groups.
Diverse Transnational Care
Available open access digitally under CC-BY-NC-ND licence. Transnational care practices differ and are not available to everyone in equal measure. Drawing on interviews with migrants’ parents in Bolivia, this book considers the conditions that older people navigate in one of the poorest countries in Latin America and analyses the diverse transnational care practices that migrants and their parents engage in. The findings highlight how socio-economic differences, migration regimes, provision of health and social services mediate transnational care practices. The authors argue that socio-economic differences matter in the ways in which transnational care is practised. The book reveals how some parents can capitalise and further secure their position through their children’s migrations, while others experience extreme levels of vulnerability.
