The Global Alliance aims to reach out to older people in all regions of the world to ensure their voices are heard by UN member states nationally, regionally, through UN institutions, UN Commissions and the UN General Assembly.
The Global Alliance for the Rights of Older People supports the creation of international and regional human rights instruments as powerful tools for strengthening the rights of older people, and is
committed to building national-level capacity to work towards more effective human rights instruments for older people.
