HelpAge International has recently released a new report, Investing in Equality: Addressing the Funding Gap for Older Women, that focuses on older women’s lifetime of disadvantage and discrimination, the bleak picture of donor spending, and empowering and strengthening their rights. To bring you cutting-edge, data-driven information, we are focusing this program on a presentation of the report and its implications. This interactive program will help us craft directions for our work on older women and the economic and social gaps.
