CPC researchers contribute to IPC-IG series on social protection for older persons

Centre for Population Change (CPC) and Centre for Research on Ageing (CRA) researchers, Professor Jane Falkingham and Dr Athina Vlachantoni, have contributed two 'one-pager' papers to the International Policy Centre for Inclusive Growth (IPC-IG).

The papers are part of a series based on the chapters of the Asian Development Bank's book "Social Protection for Older Persons".

"Gender and Old-age Pension Protection in Asia" provides an analysis of the central dynamics influencing old-age protection for women in Asia.

"Social Protection for Older People in Central Asia" assesses the impact of social protection reforms on the elderly in terms of poverty in the newly independent states of Central Asia.

The full series of one-pagers can be found on the IPC-IG website.
