It focuses on three critical areas: the well-being of older individuals and their development, the promotion of health and vitality as people age, and the creation of enabling and supportive environments. This comprehensive book brings together global perspectives on the MIPAA and assesses the success and challenges faced by governments in implementing its recommendations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDespite the significance of the MIPAA in international aging policy, it has received limited attention from academics in their writings and studies. This book aims to bridge this analytical and empirical gap. Each chapter delves into a specific geographical region, exploring five key themes: the national aging situation, the impact of the MIPAA over the past two decades, ensuring aging with dignity, promoting healthy and active aging in a sustainable world, and identifying priorities for the future. The authors provide an overall summary of the findings, address future challenges and opportunities related to aging, offer recommendations for future actions, and suggest policy adjustments necessary to achieve the goals outlined in the MIPAA.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, the book sheds light on the lessons learned from managing the impact of COVID-19 on older individuals, providing valuable insights into the immediate priorities for the future. By incorporating the lessons learned from the pandemic, the authors aim to ensure that the recommendations in the MIPAA are achieved in post-COVID-19 and sustainable ethical scenarios.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis important contribution to the field of aging policy will be invaluable to students, researchers, and practitioners in gerontology, aging, and health. It will also interest policy makers, geriatricians, dementia care specialists, social policy makers responsible for promoting active and healthy aging, and all public sector departments with specific responsibilities in this area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 660g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032292625\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44105115533562,"sku":"9781032292625","price":133.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1677233565800_book.jpg?v=1677252828","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-united-nations-madrid-international-plan-of-action-on-ageing-global-perspectives-9781032292625","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
