Collection of works: "Bridge of Understanding - Intergenerational Solidarity"
The prevailing culture that values youth, physical fitness, innovation and digitalization often overlooks the value of older persons and the essential roles that older persons play and could play in society. This publication provides a different and happier perspective. Pupils from elementary schools across Serbia vividly demonstrate to society that intergenerational solidarity brings with it a richness of opportunities that society has not adequately harnessed.

Exploring violence against older women in the Western Balkans, Moldova and Ukraine
The purpose of this report is to describe experiences of gender-based violence reported by older women (ages 65-74) in the region of Southeast and Eastern Europe. The study on which the report is based captures the most recent experiences of violence (within the past 12 months of the survey interview) against older women as well as their lifetime experiences with intimate partner and non-partner violence, both as adults and as children. Accumulated disadvantages including experiences of violence during a woman’s lifetime strongly influence overall health and wellbeing in older age, particularly when understood in the context of this stage in the life course.

The Summary of the Special Report on Discrimination Against Older Persons
Discrimination is a complex and socially dangerous phenomenon, unlawful behaviour, unwarranted discrimination or unequal treatment, and/or omission, exclusion, limitation or preferential treatment in relation to individuals or groups or persons close to them on the grounds of any real or presumed personal characteristics. Discrimination may be aimed against different categories of persons or groups of persons, having in mind their personal characteristics, and may occur in all areas of social life. If discrimination is not adequately and timely prevented, it may seriously impact the development of the society as a whole. The right to equality, as a basic human right, enjoys special protection because of the magnitude of the social danger and the importance of the good which is being protected.
