Social protection and old age poverty 2010, para. 14
Paragraph
Paragraph text
Difficulties in assessing poverty among older people are particularly problematic from a human rights perspective. They result in weaker knowledge of the specificities of old-age poverty, which most likely leads to policy choices that ignore and possibly exclude older people living in extreme poverty.
Legal status
Non-negotiated soft law
Body
Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights
