On International Women’s Day, we celebrate women at every age. Older women are leaders, mentors, volunteers, caregivers, and changemakers. Their experience and resilience strengthen families, communities, & society. True gender equality must include age equality, when older women are visible, valued, and heard, everyone benefits.

As the year ends, one truth remains: #HumanRights apply equally at every age. In 2026, we must strengthen protections, eliminate discrimination, & uphold dignity for all older persons.

Older women hit by online harassment often face dismissal rooted in ageism.
Digital safety must be for all ages.

Older women often face overlapping barriers — gender bias, ageism, and economic insecurity — that limit their agency and visibility.
Aging with dignity and equality is a human right.

Shocked to read that Ryanair won’t allow passengers to fly without a mobile boarding pass.
What about elderly travellers who don’t use smartphones? Excluding them from flying is appalling. @Ryanair should rethink this policy.

Starting today, AGE will closely follow the Commissioners' Hearings.
We are concerned by the lack of a standalone Commissioner for #Equality and the omission of an EU #AgeEquality Strategy in the mission letters.

There is a longstanding literature pointing out the Old Age Dependency Ratio statistic is ageist, inaccurate in many ways, and that it points us to the wrong policies. So why do we keep using it rather than the Employment Dependency Ratio?
