DESCRIPTION:\n	(A/RES/45/106)\n\n\n\n	On 14 December 1990\, the United N
	ations General Assembly designated October 1 as the International Day of O
	lder Persons (resolution 45/106). This was preceded by initiatives such as
	 the Vienna International Plan of Action on Ageing\, which was adopted by 
	the 1982 World Assembly on Ageing and endorsed later that year by the UN G
	eneral Assembly.\n\n\n\n	In 1991\, the General Assembly adopted the United
	 Nations Principles for Older Persons (resolution 46/91). In 2002\, the Se
	cond World Assembly on Ageing adopted the Madrid International Plan of Act
	ion on Ageing\, to respond to the opportunities and challenges of populati
	on ageing in the 21st century and to promote the development of a society 
	for all ages.\n\n\n\n	The composition of the world population has changed 
	dramatically in recent decades. Between 1950 and 2010\, life expectancy wo
	rldwide rose from 46 to 68 years. Globally\, there were 703 million person
	s aged 65 or over in 2019. The region of Eastern and South-Eastern Asia wa
	s home to the largest number of older persons (261 million)\, followed by 
	Europe and Northern America (over 200 million).\n\n\n\n	Over the next thre
	e decades\, the number of older persons worldwide is projected to more tha
	n double\, reaching more than 1.5 billion persons in 2050. All regions wil
	l see an increase in the size of the older population between 2019 and 205
	0. The largest increase (312 million) is projected to occur in Eastern and
	 South-Eastern Asia\, growing from 261 million in 2019 to 573 million in 2
	050. The fastest increase in the number of older persons is expected in No
	rthern Africa and Western Asia\, rising from 29 million in 2019 to 96 mill
	ion in 2050 (an increase of 226 per cent). The second fastest increase is 
	projected for sub-Saharan Africa\, where the population aged 65 or over co
	uld grow from 32 million in 2019 to 101 million in 2050 (218 per cent). By
	 contrast\, the increase is expected to be relatively small in Australia a
	nd New Zealand (84 per cent) and in Europe and Northern America (48%)\, re
	gions where the population is already significantly older than in other pa
	rts of the world.\n\n\n\n	Among development groups\, less developed countr
	ies excluding the least developed countries will be home to more than two-
	thirds of the world’s older population (1.1 billion) in 2050. Yet the fa
	stest increase is projected to take place in the least developed countries
	\, where the number of persons aged 65 or over could rise from 37 million 
	in 2019 to 120 million in 2050 (225%).\n\n\n\n	Change the Way You Think Ab
	out Age!\n\n
