Description

Background

HelpAge International is a registered charity in the UK, leading an international network focused on ageing issues and supporting older people globally.

HelpAge works with 171 partners in 90 countries to help older people claim their rights and challenge discrimination and poverty, so that they can lead dignified, secure, active and healthy lives.

HelpAge operates through a Global Team with staff based across the world. Through this structure HelpAge delivers its Strategy 2030.

Purpose

The primary purpose of the proposed research is to deepen our understanding of the barriers and enablers to inclusion of older people in nutrition cluster responses to humanitarian crises.

It is anticipated that this research will generate evidence that will be used to assist nutrition practitioners, in addition to supporting HelpAge advocacy in promoting the identification of at-risk older people and ensuring their inclusion in nutrition cluster response plans.

In addition, the research should inform and reinforce wider communications and advocacy on older people as an overlooked and neglected population group in humanitarian crises around the world.
