Many social work organisations are providing home support to the elderly who have been ostracised from their homes are too insecure to live alone. Despite that, there are several other challenges that need to be countered in order to create a healthy living for all.

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, people without access to the internet were already at a severe disadvantage in terms of accessing essential goods, services, job opportunities and financial support. The pandemic has dramatically exacerbated this situation. People — many for the first time — have increasingly had to rely on the internet and digital devices to get things done, and to participate fully in society.
In this webinar we presented and discussed the key findings from our research with Citizens Online. The aim of the research was to explore the digital experiences of older adults, and the organisations supporting them during the pandemic.

Importance Of NGOs For The Development Of Our Societykananjames
The duties of the people associated with NGOs are phenomenal both in terms of quantity as well as quality. Let us understand a bit of what these people do.
In this PowerPoint Presentation, we delve into the topic of aging in India and the social challenges faced by elderly citizens. Aging is a natural phenomenon that comes with both opportunities and challenges. Research has identified several factors that contribute to healthy aging, including genetics, exercise, diet, sleep, and health maintenance. Unfortunately, challenges facing the elderly include poverty, ageist attitudes, and risks of mistreatment and abuse. Join us as we unveil the realities of aging in India and explore ways to address these social issues.
The issue that I would like to work on is the issue of poverty.docxoreo10
The issue that I would like to work on is the issue of poverty.
Poverty is a global issue affecting millions of people around the world. It has been the cause of
concern for many people because poverty leads to other dangerous issues that may affect
humanity, human lives and human values. Poverty is prevalent all over the world because of the
poor economic structure of countries, poor resources and also because of illiteracy. The other
reason for poverty is simple laziness of people because they do not want to work, or they may
not have skills to earn money to make a living for themselves. It is a potentially dangerous issue
and it need to be solved.
Poverty matters a lot in today’s world because poverty leads to other issues, such as increase of
crimes, malnourishment in children, early deaths of children, terrorism, social conflicts and
tensions among people. Poverty also can lead to another main issue of homelessness. It matters a
lot for everyone, people who are poor and people who are not so poor, and countries that are
poorly developed and countries that are well-developed because poverty may also lead to
increase in immigration and this immigration may become a world issue.
Poverty also creates a burden on the economy of the country. The healthcare field may be
affected because poor people may suffer from many diseases and they would need treatment.
They may not be able to pay for their treatment and the overall burden of healthcare would come
on the government healthcare institutions. Poverty is not a problem of a single individual, but it
is a problem of a community and a problem of the nation. People may think that poverty is a
chosen “problem,” but this is not the case. Sometimes the economic situations in a country and
the prevalent corruption and unemployment may become the cause of poverty.
The best solution to the problem would be globalization and global help. The poor countries have
to be helped by the richer countries. The solutions should not be like donating money and
feeding for a day, but the root causes have to be identified and they have to be dealt with to deal
with the issue of poverty right from its roots.
Poverty is a global issue and there are many causes behind poverty, and at the same time there
are serious consequences because of poverty so some solutions are essential and the help from
the richer and developed countries is a welcome thought and a necessary one. This essay argues
that poverty is the problem of countries and communities, and therefore the root causes of this
problem have to be identified to eradicate it completely.
Second Issue
The issue I would like to work on is the issue of homelessness.
The problem of homelessness is an important social and communal problem because it can lead
to different other problems of increase in crime, poor humanistic values and a total downfall of
humanity. People who are homeless may suffer f ...

Often enough, the senior citizens' help lines are the only support the old people have in teeming metropolises like Hyderabad, Bangalore, Mumbai, Kolkatta, Delhi etc.Property disputes and financial concerns are the main causes of abuse of the elderly, with the youth often perceiving them as a burden. The help lines promise the senior citizens seeking help absolute confidentiality and carry out social intervention to solve the problem, Many of the elderly have lost their spouses. Their friends and relatives circles also narrow down as disease and death take their toll. There has been a spurt in suicides by the elderly as increased loneliness, depression, disease and lack of care induces a sense of helplessness amongst them.

Up the Ratios Bylaws - a Comprehensive Process of Our Organizationuptheratios
Up the Ratios is a non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap in STEM education for underprivileged students by providing free, high-quality learning opportunities in robotics and other STEM fields. Our mission is to empower the next generation of innovators, thinkers, and problem-solvers by offering a range of educational programs that foster curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking.
At Up the Ratios, we believe that every student, regardless of their socio-economic background, should have access to the tools and knowledge needed to succeed in today's technology-driven world. To achieve this, we host a variety of free classes, workshops, summer camps, and live lectures tailored to students from underserved communities. Our programs are designed to be engaging and hands-on, allowing students to explore the exciting world of robotics and STEM through practical, real-world applications.
Our free classes cover fundamental concepts in robotics, coding, and engineering, providing students with a strong foundation in these critical areas. Through our interactive workshops, students can dive deeper into specific topics, working on projects that challenge them to apply what they've learned and think creatively. Our summer camps offer an immersive experience where students can collaborate on larger projects, develop their teamwork skills, and gain confidence in their abilities.
In addition to our local programs, Up the Ratios is committed to making a global impact. We take donations of new and gently used robotics parts, which we then distribute to students and educational institutions in other countries. These donations help ensure that young learners worldwide have the resources they need to explore and excel in STEM fields. By supporting education in this way, we aim to nurture a global community of future leaders and innovators.
Our live lectures feature guest speakers from various STEM disciplines, including engineers, scientists, and industry professionals who share their knowledge and experiences with our students. These lectures provide valuable insights into potential career paths and inspire students to pursue their passions in STEM.
Up the Ratios relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers to continue our work. Contributions of time, expertise, and financial support are crucial to sustaining our programs and expanding our reach. Whether you're an individual passionate about education, a professional in the STEM field, or a company looking to give back to the community, there are many ways to get involved and make a difference.
We are proud of the positive impact we've had on the lives of countless students, many of whom have gone on to pursue higher education and careers in STEM. By providing these young minds with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed, we are not only changing their futures but also contributing to the advancement of technology and innovation on a broader scale.

Challenges Faced by the Ageing Society
The growing necessity to delve more into geriatric studies is a sign of positivity. As per WHO’s report,
it is estimated that the ageing population of the world will increase from 900 million to 2 billion from
a given period of 2015 to 2050. NGOs have a major role behind this. From providing home support for
the elderly to creating social awareness, they have done a tremendous job to entail everything that is
needed to tackle the problems faced by elderly people. In developed countries, such activities are
being carried out with an indomitable spirit but in comparison to developing countries like India,
there is a lot to be done given that our problems are very different, one of them being
overpopulation. But the road to a better future is being paved steadily; therefore, let us have a look at
the major challenges which the ageing society faces in general and how that can be controlled.
Challenges
Population Explosion - As
mentioned above, the constant
increase in population has
become the apex cause of
concern. According to the 2016
report by Ministry for Statistics
and Programme Implementation,
there were nearly 104 million
people aged sixty or above which
according to that year comprised
of 8.5% of the country’s
population. This is increasing the burden for social organisations to provide a sustainable life to the
elderly people.
Lack of Healthcare Services - Another major factor is the lack of adequate measures to provide sound
healthcare facilities for every elderly person. There is news of old people dying because of not getting
proper treatment, unable to afford treatment or worse, not able to find a bed in hospitals, which has
become a common thing. In many rural areas, the situations are disparaging. Despite efforts by
various governments, elders in the villages suffer the most.

Lack of Infrastructure - Similar to the above points, there is a lack of infrastructure for many aged
people in India as a result, are suffering painful deaths. Although there are many senior citizen homes
in India, many elderly people aren’t so fortunate to afford them. Moreover, there have been
complaints that services are not up to the mark, every home doesn’t provide enough caregivers to
look after, no sociable activities, etc. In
not so urbanised areas, there are
problems with the electricity and water
supply, there be no proper hospitals or
poorly constructed nursing homes as
well.
Social Support Deficiency - The older a
person grows, he/she develops a sense
of insecurity. That is because many
elderly individuals are victims of
isolation and negligence. You will find a
community centre or club which
specifically adheres to the geriatric
populace. Moreover, children move
out to distant places or force them to
stay separately which leave them yearning for physical and moral support.
Solutions
Solutions to solve the challenges faced by the senior citizens should be for both, monetary and non-
monetary reasons. Let us have a look at them:
Despite being such a populated and heterogenic country, there are many who not even
consider that population is actually a problem. This is mostly the case in rural areas. But
wherever it is, the problem needs to be handled with effective means. This cannot be
controlled unless some dogmatic government rule impedes the natives from producing beyond
a specified number, but it’s important to provide every ageing citizen with a prominent life to
live. There should be various programmes that provide financial aid in the form of employment
that is suitable for people for that age so that they can live off independently like integrated
plans that cover every small big, city and rural area to provide the necessary costs for food,

clothing, shelter and hygiene for the suffering individuals. In fact, there are government plans
which have been implemented nationwide to provide care for the elderly.
Healthcare in India needs to significantly improve since huge expenditures are being spent to
meet healthcare costs, but many aged individuals are still devoid of any benefit. The older
people come from different walks of life because of the diversity in culture and background.
Their physical, psychological and social needs should be considered and carefully examined.
Not just hospitals or nursing homes but there should be various health camps conforming
especially to senior citizens and health drives that will instigate the elderly populace to visit
and understand self-care. For a person who is unable to manoeuvre from his/her home should
be given the
requisite in the
form of
treatments,
check-ups at their
private spaces
itself.
Indeed there are a
lot of old age
homes that
accommodate
senior citizens, but
there are many
more who are
unable to afford
such shelters or are unaware. Although building more old age homes isn’t the only solutions
but old people, in particular, face a lot of issues in places where the basic amenities aren’t fully
available. Not all are recipients of proper housing. In villages or smaller cities, there are
perpetual problems of water or power crisis which should be laid to rest. In the case of natural
disasters, houses should be able to withstand any calamity that strikes or should have the
proper evacuation means that are especially suitable for old people. For houses as well as old
age homes, the living conditions should be worthy for everyone to live with affordable
rates/rents. In the case of the latter, proper services should be provided.
Humans are psychosocial beings. As older they grow, due to demented health, they aren’t able
to socialise like the yesteryears. Their needs need to be understood. An aged person living off
independently can visit day care homes where he can meet his peers and converse about the

day to day life. There should be clubs organised by the respective RWA especially for them,
where people from different walks of life can come and indulge in various activities. Senior
citizens also suffer from various diseases that may restrict them to beds or hospitals. During
such times of distress, it’s better to visit them or interact with them once a while; be it your kin
or someone from the neighbourhood.
Thus, the world would be a much better place if we can create a place worthy for our elders. There
are a lot of challenges but to overcome them by ingenious means remains the ultimate goal. On a
personal level, you too can do a lot of things for them. If you see anyone suffering, contact the senior
citizen helpline of your city immediately.
