Age International Member

Age International works with, and for, older people in some of the world's poorest countries; championing their rights and supporting those who are most vulnerable. Our free cataract operations are helping to cure one of the world’s most common ageing eyesight problems, for some of the world’s poorest people. Older people are particularly vulnerable during conflicts, crises and natural disasters - yet they are often forgotten. We help them to survive. We all matter - no matter how old we are. Age International fights for people who have been marginalised because of their age. Women experience ageism on top of sexism in later life. We aim to amplify older women's voices and protect the right to equality at all ages. We campaign for pensions around the world. Where benefits do exist, we make sure there are no barriers to people claiming what they are owed.
