About

The event is hosted by HelpAge International and Friends of Europe, and co-sponsored by the British Embassy in Kyiv.

This event will provide an opportunity to confirm and communicate the commitment of the EU and other international partners to support reforms responding to Ukraine’s ageing population in the context of social and economic recovery, reconstruction and EU enlargement.

It will provide a space for the Government of Ukraine to share its ambitions for older people, and to share knowledge and learning from Europe and Ukraine’s international partners such as the UK and Japan.

This event will take place in online. Follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn or Instagram, and learn more about Help Age International’s work here.
