Abstract
Every five years, countries of the UNECE region undertake an analysis of the current state of implementation of the Madrid International Plan of Action on Ageing and its Regional Implementation Strategy (MIPAA/RIS, adopted in 2002) and highlight the actions required to make further progress. The UNECE Working Group on Ageing – an intergovernmental body including 56 member States from Europe, North America, Caucasus and Central Asia - facilitates this process and the UNECE Secretariat compiles and synthesises the findings from all country reports.
The 3rd review and appraisal cycle of MIPAA/RIS (2012–2017) will be completed at the UNECE Ministerial Conference on Ageing in Lisbon, on 21–22 September 2017 with a launch of a Synthesis Report and adoption of political declaration.
This poster will provide a preview of findings from the Synthesis Report and will indicate the main areas of focus for the next cycle of MIPAA/RIS implementation in the UNECE region.
