old age and support system
This document discusses aging and living arrangements for the elderly. It notes that the worldwide population over age 60 is nearing 700 million and is expected to reach 2 billion by 2050. Living arrangements can include joint families, nuclear families, living alone, or institutionalization. Joint families traditionally provided support for elders in India but are decreasing. Nuclear families offer job opportunities but full-time elder care is difficult. Institutionalization in old age homes provides medical care and amenities, but oversight and care quality is sometimes lacking. Family, social, economic, and physical support systems are important for elderly well-being.

This has created an urgent need for solutions addressing the social, health, and financial security of older Indians. Most elderly Indians do not receive a pension and have to rely on family or personal savings, making them vulnerable as costs of living rise.

Changing needs of old people in India
The population of elderly persons in India has grown substantially in recent decades and is expected to continue growing significantly. Many elderly people now live alone and have to depend on their own resources for support. There is a need for more services and facilities to address the healthcare, skill-building, financial security, and social support needs of the growing elderly population in India. A survey of 10,000 elderly Indians found that while many remain active, they lack access to adequate healthcare, pensions, and facilities like old age homes. More efforts are needed to support the independence and well-being of senior citizens.
Conditions of the senior citizens in india today
In India, the senior citizen homes are playing a crucial role in making things in terms of living, better for the elderly. There are factors such as the ‘concept of nuclear families’, inequality in the society and insufficient health care availability that has resulted in making the living conditions difficult for the elderly.

In this busy world of making money, we don’t get time for social services or to do something good for others. Here comes a chance to sponsor money for food, clothes, medicines, and other things for our elderly people

Status of Children in India Inc.
The present status report includes issues of rights to survival and development, these being health, early childhood development and education. A major section is devoted to child protection since the issues to be addressed are far too many. While there is a chapter dedicated to violence against children, separate chapters deal with child sexual abuse, juvenile justice, child labour and trafficking. The last two years have seen large scale de-housing of children and their families. As an addition this time we have included a section on right to adequate housing as it is a right that cuts across survival, development and protection issues. Given that a large number of children are growing in situations of emergency – human made or natural, it was critical to address their situation separately. Even as we write this report a new disaster has struck the country. Thousands have died or been rendered homeless in Jammu & Kashmir due to the earthquake. The rights of the disabled child have always been marginalised. But since little has changed since our last report, we have addressed issues of disability in the chapters on health and education.

The document summarizes a case study of a 76-year-old man in Singapore struggling with poverty. He runs a small business to support his wheelchair-bound daughters and senile wife. However, the government increased his shop's monthly rent from $150 to $450, exacerbating his financial difficulties. While charities and young people help the poor, more could be done through government assistance and policy reviews to support those in need and account for rising living costs.

Child labor
Child labor is a significant problem in India, with over 3.8 million children between 5-14 years old working. Poverty is a major contributing factor, as 30% of India's population lives below the poverty line and children from these families often must work to survive. Lack of awareness about the importance of education also leads to increased child labor rates, especially in rural areas. To reduce child labor, awareness must be raised among parents about education, and child labor laws need stricter enforcement.
SocialIissues of Elderly People in India
It is all about those people who still have superstitious beliefs about old age homes, who still stigmatize them.

Isolation - Suffered by Most of the Elderly
The helpless anger felt by most caring people at the manner wherein the elderly have been forgotten, questions the very existence of human relations as well as the norms prevailing towards the elders in our society.

The document discusses poverty through an introduction, case study, and analysis. The introduction defines poverty and notes that about 1.7 billion people live in absolute poverty. The case study describes a 76-year-old man in Singapore whose small business and meager income supports his ill family members but is strained by a sudden increase in shop rental fees by the government. The analysis notes the problem is lack of financial assistance for the family and high costs of living in Singapore exacerbating their situation.
Active Ageing - Keep Older People Physically Healthy
Active ageing is the process of enhancing opportunities for health, social involvement as well as security to improve quality of life as people grow old. It applies to both individuals and population groups.
Child labour in india
Child labor remains a significant problem in India, with millions of children engaged in work rather than attending school. Poverty is the primary driver, as families depend on children's wages to survive. Other factors include lack of access to education, social norms, cheap labor demands, and non-compliance with laws. Child labor has severe negative impacts on children's health, development, and long-term prospects. While laws exist to regulate child labor, enforcement remains a challenge. International organizations are working with the Indian government to address the root causes and support rehabilitation programs. Eliminating poverty through social welfare programs, expanding educational access, and strictly enforcing labor laws are seen as keys to solving the issue.

Golden Rejuvenation and Empowerment.
In the daily busy lifestyles, taking care of the elder parents sometimes becomes a tough job. Moreover, children who dwell in the foreign countries have no time for their aged parents neither have any time to ask about their well-being.

To address all such social issues, Aumorto Senior Living is here to meet the needs of the old parents and to keep them happy for the rest of their life. They are provided with a amiable atmosphere, where they can feel free and connected to the nature.

Border towns and spaces of (in)visibility.pdf
This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.

Elderly People: Increasingly, Abandoned by Their own Children
- 1. HelpAge India http://www.helpageindia.org HelpAge India messageheadoffice@helpageindia.org C-14, Qutab Institutional Area Toll Free Elder Help Line: 1800-180-1253 New Delhi - 110016 Elderly People: Increasingly, Abandoned by Their own Children Ageing of the population is a global phenomenon; no country is untouched by it. A population can be said to be ageing, when the proportion of the older people increases as that of its youth and children. India is going through some major technological, social, cultural and demographic transition. Along with the growing number of the aged persons, the idea of joint family system is fast disappearing from the Indian society. Various studies show that elderly people are now facing many problems and they are one of the most vulnerable and high-risk groups in terms of health and socio-economic status in the society today. Elderly are the senior citizens of the nation leading their lives in a transitional phase. The transition from middle to old age is a critical period when state of health and post retirement finances sharply decreases. These problems become more complicated when their children start ignoring them as they become preoccupied with the running of their own individual lives. As a result, elderly people face social problems along with the economic and health problems.

HelpAge India http://www.helpageindia.org HelpAge India messageheadoffice@helpageindia.org C-14, Qutab Institutional Area Toll Free Elder Help Line: 1800-180-1253 New Delhi - 110016 Unlike earlier times, when the presence of grandparents or any elderly relatives were as considered as s blessing. Today’s reality is that children do not shy away from, in some cases, even abandoning their parents and elders. Placing them in old age homes or isolating them in their own homes has become commonplace. Observing the gravity of the situation, various non-profit organizations have come forward to help the senior citizens through various sponsored programs and initiatives. They provide home support for those elderly people, who have been neglected by their children and thus, living in isolation. There is an urgent need for the young generation to recognize and understand that it is because of their parents that they have been able to achieve so much in their life. The blessing of our elders just cannot be ignored. Our parents have undergone a lot of trials and tribulations to bring children to a level where they can stand on their feet. Now more than ever, children should not leave them when the elders need the most.
