Book Description
The Madrid International Plan of Action on Ageing, adopted at the 2nd World Assembly on Ageing in April 2002, focuses on three priority areas: older persons and development; advancing health and well-being into old age; and ensuring enabling and supportive environments. This report provides the demographic foundation for the follow-up activities of the Second World Assembly on Ageing, assessing global trends in population ageing through a series of indicators for development regions, major areas, regions and individual countries, and including demographic profiles for each country covering the period 1950 to 2050
