supports a global network which brings together a wide range of
organisations and individuals working to promote the rights and meet the
needs of older women and men nationally and/or internationally. The
global network was established in 1983, founded by five organisations
including HelpAge Kenya, that believed a global secretariat was
necessary to link up and learn from civil society working with older
people on ageing issues as demographic ageing began to emerge. Since
2002, the network has brought together over 157 organisations across
more than 90 countries of which 37 are African members working in 23
countries.

Our long-term vision is to establish a global movement of strong
connected age focused and older people led platforms in every country in
the world. Only by collaborating can we achieve a world in which all
older people can lead dignified, active, healthy and secure lives. We
aim to extend the reach and influence of the HelpAge Global Network to
all those in a position to help bring about our vision for older people –
including Governments, regional institutions, policy makers,
development partners, the private sector, UN organisations and academic
institutions.
To achieve this, we recognised that we need to widen our network and
partnership and transform how we enable and empower our network members
and partners to collaborate, strengthen and learn from each other. In
the Africa Region we will deliver this through a combination of
programme, policy and communications work focused on our core themes of
social protection, health and care, violence, neglect and abuse and
humanitarian work
