The realization of the right to health of older persons 2011, para. 50
- Paragraph text
- The Special Rapporteur is particularly concerned about unreported violence directed against older persons in care. As with other vulnerable and marginalized groups, special attention is needed to protect older persons from abuse and to ensure that their rights are not violated in settings where they might be especially prone to violations. Abuse of older persons is defined as a single or repeated act, or lack of appropriate action, occurring within any relationship where there is an expectation of trust which causes harm or distress to an older person. It is important to note that abuse is often insidious, limiting the autonomy of older persons in subtle ways. It can take various forms, including physical, psychological, emotional, sexual or financial abuse, or be affected by neglect.

Paragraph
Comprehensive prevention strategies against sale and sexual exploitation of children 2013, para. 35
- Paragraph text
- Children living in difficult conditions are likely to be tempted by the prospect of living independently, in a bigger city, and earning money and sending money home. Especially for older children, the search for a better life and economic opportunities can prompt risky choices. They may be more prone to accepting solicitations by brokers and potential employers or to migrating on their own, all of which expose them to trafficking and exploitative situations. Some children may also engage in risky behaviours, such as the consumption of drugs and alcohol and involvement in criminal gangs. Vulnerability is primarily relational. It is highly dependent on the child's situation in a given context, namely, environment, social norms and a variety of possible shocks. An individual child's characteristics only become a source of vulnerability if the child's environment fails to provide a protective framework or contributes to exposing the child to risk.

Violence against women as a barrier to the effective realization of all human rights 2014, para. 44
- Paragraph text
- Violence against women is too often discussed in a theoretical vacuum that focuses only on interpersonal and structural inequalities between men and women, thereby excluding analysis on intra-gender inequalities. It is important to recognize the obstacles faced by women who experience multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination, for example women with disabilities, women who belong to ethnic or cultural minorities, women who live in poverty, women who live in rural areas, women who lack citizenship status and older women, among others. This increases the risk that some women will experience targeted, compounded or structural discrimination, in addition to gender-based violence (A/HRC/17/26, para. 17).

The realization of the right to health of older persons 2011, para. 53
- Paragraph text
- Various initiatives have been adopted in the area of domestic violence, particularly in respect of violence towards women, which could be drawn upon to raise awareness of abuse of older persons amongst medical professionals and the wider community. In addition to increased training, procedures need to be put in place for reporting abuses and addressing the consequences. For example, the 2006 Older Persons Act of South Africa, inter alia, requires a person who may witness the abuse of an older person, not only physical but also psychological, sexual, and economic abuse, to report the violation. The Act also establishes a system in which abusers of older persons are investigated and registered with a view to prohibiting them from operating or being employed in a residential facility or community-based care for older persons.

States parties should give due consideration to the situation of older women when addressing sexual violence, forced displacement and the conditions of refugees during armed conflict. States parties should take into account relevant United Nations resolutions on women and peace and security when addressing such matters, including, in particular, Security Council resolutions 1325 (2000), 1820 (2008) and 1889 (2009).

The realization of the right to health of older persons 2011, para. 51
- Paragraph text
- The abuse of older persons can be complex when the abusing caregiver is a relative or a family member. The frequency of elder abuse in the domestic setting, including abuse perpetrated by family members, was estimated by one study as occurring in anywhere between 2 and 10 per cent of all cases. In an institutional setting incidences of abuse are even harder to ascertain Abuse may also take the form of prejudicial and discriminatory attitudes and acts, which manifests itself through paternalism towards older persons in care, leaving them feeling humiliated, infantilized, and robbing them of the identity they otherwise have as human beings.
