This country profile for the State of Palestine (as well as other country profiles for Kuwait, Algeria, Lebanon, Morocco, Qatar, Syria, and the UAE) were developed by HelpAge International with support from the UNFPA Arab States Regional Office.
They shed light on the situation of older women and men in relation to income, health, education, autonomy, and safety. Additionally, they highlight how national systems and strategies address the needs and rights of aging people in these areas.
The aim of these country profiles is to help monitor the progress achieved towards the inclusion of older persons in the Sustainable Development Goals. They also aim to identify opportunities to strengthen national strategies and data.
