- Welcoming 2026 with a renewed commitment to dignity, equity, & rights for people of all ages. Here’s to challenging ageism, strengthening inclusion, & building communities where every generation thrives. #HappyNewYear #AgeEquality #HumanRights #EndAgeism @garopsec.bsky.social @ungeneva.bsky.social
- Human rights are essential at every stage of life. On #HumanRightsDay, let’s reaffirm that dignity, care & equality aren’t luxuries but basic human needs. What do #EverydayEssentials mean to you? @garopsec.bsky.social @undecadeageing.bsky.social #HumanRights #Ageism #OlderPersons #Equality
- Violence has no age limit — neither should protection. Older women experiencing abuse face isolation, disbelief, and silence. It’s time to make them visible, heard, and safe. @eapon.bsky.social @endvaw.bsky.social @oaith.bsky.social #16Days #EndGBV #Ageism #OlderWomen #HumanRights
- Digital safety is a human right — at every age. To stop tech-facilitated violence, we need stronger laws, accountability from tech companies, & inclusion of older women in safety & leadership. @helpage.bsky.social @garopsec.bsky.social @eapon.bsky.social #16Days #EndGBV #ACTtoEndViolence #NoExcuse
- Today, we honour the 14 women killed at Polytechnique Montréal in 1989. Their lives were stolen by misogyny — their memory compels us to act. Let’s remember.🕯️ Let’s listen. 👂 Let’s end gender-based violence. 🚫 @eapon.bsky.social #NationalDayofRemembrance #EndGBV #PolytechniqueMontréal #16Days
- Digital violence affects women of all ages. Between 16–58% of women have faced online abuse — from harassment to image-based violence. Older women deserve digital safety and respect. @endvaw.bsky.social @oaith.bsky.social #16Days #EndGBV #ACTtoEndViolence #NoExcuse
- Digital abuse targets women of all ages — but those facing multiple forms of discrimination, including older women, are most at risk. Safety online is a human right for every woman. @undecadeageing.bsky.social @cdnhumanrights.bsky.social #16Days #EndGBV #ACTtoEndViolence #NoExcuse
- We’re pleased to announce a new MOU between ILC Global Alliance & International Federation on Ageing to advance healthy aging. Together we’ll boost evidence, advocacy, & global cooperation for older people. #ILCGlobal #IFA #GlobalAlliance #ILCC @garopsec.bsky.social @garopsec.bsky.social
- Older women face silencing too — both because of gender and because of age. During these 16 Days, we lift up their voices. Every survivor deserves respect and response. @eapon.bsky.social @endvaw.bsky.social @oaith.bsky.social #16Days #EndGBV #ACTtoEndViolence #NoExcuse
