  • Moldova Is Strongly Marked by Self-Censorship and Partisanship
    For economic or political reasons, journalism in Moldova is strongly marked by self-censorship and partisanship. A significant part of the population, especially those living in the villages, does not have access to a variety of information sources due to poverty. Profitable media still represent an exception rather than the rule. MoldoVA 166 MEDIA SUSTAINABILITY INDEX 2009 INTRODUCTION OVERALL SCORE: 1.81 M Parliamentary elections will take place at the beginning of 2009, which made 2008 a pre-election year. Although the Republic of Moldova has not managed to fulfill all of the EU-Moldova Action Plan commitments (which expired in February 2008), especially those concerning the independence of both the oldo Pmass media and judiciary, the Communist government has been trying to begin negotiations over a new agreement with the EU. This final agreement should lead to the establishment of more advanced relations compared to the current status of being simply an EU neighbor. On the other hand, steps have been taken to establish closer relations with Russia, which sought to improve its global image in the wake of its war with Georgia by addressing the Transnistria issue. Moldovan V authorities hoped that new Russian president Dmitri Medvedev would exert pressure upon Transnistria’s separatist leaders to accept the settlement project proposed by Chişinău. If this would have occurred, A the future parliamentary elections would have taken place throughout the entire territory of Moldova, including Transnistria. But this did not happen: Russia suggested that Moldova reconsider the settlement plan proposed in 2003 by Moscow, which stipulated, among other things, continuing deployment of Russian troops in Moldova in spite of commitments to withdraw them made at the 1999 OSCE summit.

    Older people in disasters and humanitarian crises: Guidelines for best practice Older people in disasters and humanitarian crises: Guidelines for best practice HelpAge International is a global network of not-for-profit organisations with a mission to work with and for disadvantaged older people worldwide to achieve a lasting improvement in the quality of their lives. Contents 1 Summary Part 1: Guidelines for best practice 2 Key issues and needs The guidelines 3 Addressing older people’s needs 4 Meeting basic needs 5 Mobility 5 Equal access to essential services 7 Social, psychosocial and family needs 8 Recognise and support the contributions of older people Part 2: The issues 10 Principles in an ageing world 11 Older people’s vulnerability in emergencies 12 Capacities and contributions 12 Gender questions Part 3: The research 13 Investigating emergencies 14 Research results Part 4: Applying the guidelines 21 Vulnerability checklists 22 Appendix 1 23 Appendix 2 24 Appendix 3 25 Resource list Older people in disasters and humanitarian crises: 1 Guidelines for best practice Summary These Guidelines for best practice are based on wide-ranging new research from Asia, Africa, Europe and the Americas and many years’ global disaster experience. They aim to help relief agencies meet the special needs of older people in emergencies. While older people are commonly accepted as being a vulnerable or potentially vulnerable group, at present very little is done to meet their particular needs, or to recognise their unique capacities and contributions. Humanitarian interventions often ignore older people’s special needs, using systems that discriminate against them and, on occasion, undermine their capacity to support themselves.

  • Advancing the Inclusion of Older People in Livelihoods and Work Opportunities
    Capacity Assessment Analysis Report, HelpAge Jordan Project Advancing the inclusion of older people in livelihoods and work opportunities Capacity assessment analysis report, 2018 HelpAge Knowledge & Resource Hub Tel: +962 (0) 6 4640241 - E-mail: knowledgeandresourcehub [email protected] 1 Capacity Assessment Analysis Report, HelpAge Jordan Project Foreword HelpAge International (HAI) is a global network of organisations promoting the right of all older people to lead dignified, healthy and secure lives. Our role is to work with older women and men in low and middle-income countries for better services and policies, and for changes in the behaviours and attitudes of individuals and societies towards old age. The world we want is one where every older woman and man, everywhere, can say: "I have the income I need" "I enjoy the best possible health and quality of life" "I am safe and secure, free from discrimination and abuse" "My voice is heard" HAI has been raising awareness among humanitarian actors and government institutions about the vulnerabilities of older men and women as a result of humanitarian crises in the Middle East region since 2009. Building on our previous engagement, in 2017 HAI in Jordan partnered with the German government to establish a new, innovative Knowledge & Resource Hub to provide better support to organizations responding to the humanitarian and livelihoods needs of older people. The project, "Leaving No One Behind”, conducted a short, qualitative capacity assessment exercise in 2018 among local, national, and international organizations, government agencies and private sector organizations to identify needs and knowledge gaps in relation to the inclusion of older Syrian refugees and Jordanians in livelihoods interventions, programmes and work opportunities.

  • Helpage International Statement Delivered by Toby Porter, CEO, Helpage International
    WORLD HUMANITARIAN SUMMIT HIGH LEVEL LEADERS’ ROUNDTABLE 6 Natural Disasters and Climate Change – managing risks and crises differently HelpAge International statement Delivered by Toby Porter, CEO, HelpAge International We all must face the fact that the world is ageing rapidly. Some of the states represented here are among the fastest ageing countries on earth. Within five years, adults aged 60 and over will outnumber children aged under 5.1 By 2050, there will be more people in the world aged over 60 than all children under 14.2 Populations are ageing fastest in low and middle income countries where the human impact of disasters tends to be greatest.3 HelpAge International and its global network are proud to endorse the five core commitments of this Roundtable. We must also recognise that older men and women are amongst the people at highest risk in disasters. When the earthquake and tsunami struck Japan in 2011, 56% of all those who died were aged 65 and over, although only 23% of the baseline population was in this age group.4 In Nepal, 29% of those who died in last year’s earthquake were aged over 60, yet older people are only 8% of the population.5 Yet despite the growing number of older people affected by disasters and the disproportionate risk they face, older people still tend to be neglected in disaster preparedness and disaster response.6 The Synthesis Report on the consultation process for this World Humanitarian Summit makes a very clear call: “Correct the neglect of older people”,7 it said.
