Talk to Paul

Campaigners around the world have been connecting across borders to champion the rights of older people through our Age Demands Action campaign.

A unique dialogue has seen some of our campaigners in Kenya connect with older people in European countries such as the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Slovenia and Ireland. They've been learning about each other's lives and sharing their thoughts on why protecting the rights of older people is so important to them.

Paul, 74, from Kenya is one of the campaigners introducing people to her world. You can also watch other campaigners Josephine and Rhoda talk to people in the EU.

You can sign the EU Lead the Way petition, which is calling for the EU, as the world's largest aid donor, to include older people in their development policies and programmes.

You can also add your voice to the conversation by leaving a message for Paul on this page.

  Thank you very much for all of your comments. I have always felt good to take part in Age Demands Action Campaign. This experience has given me a voice that people can listen to and take action! Action to the needs and cry of senior citizens. It has even enabled my colleague Rodah to travel to a foreign country just to speak about issues of older people..this is very good.
