VIDEO: Age Demands Action

An estimated 100 million older people are living on less than $1 a day. Older people are among the poorest and most marginalized in many countries. Older people, especially older women, play key roles as caretakers in support of people with HIV/AIDS and orphaned grandchildren. The nonprofit HelpAge is a network of organizations promoting the right of all older people to lead dignified, healthy and secure lives.
