“CONGRATULATIONS ON A TRULY IMPORTANT MILESTONE -- THE UN RESOLUTION ON AGEING THAT RECOGNIZES AND CELEBRATES PERHAPS THE GREATEST ACHIEVMENT OF OUR TIME, INCREASED LONGEVITY, AND NOW CREATES THE PLATFORM FOR A PATHWAY FOR HUMAN RIGHTS OF THIS GROWING SEGMENT OF THE WORLD POPULATION. IN ROME AN ACTON CONFERENCE ON AGEING IN COLLABORATION WITH VATICAN LEADERSHIP REPRESENTS THE KIND OF PLATFORMS WHERE THIS CELEBRATION WILL BE EXTENDED AND THROUGH WHICH WE CAN BUILD THE INTELLECTUAL, SOCIAL AND POLICY PATHWAY FOR REALIZATION OF THE UN RESOLUTION’S ASPIRATIONS”
