Guidance on what to consider when developing a high-level result on gender equlity and the empowerment of women for the strategic plan, including examples from UN entities.

As populations age worldwide, women—who make up the majority of the older population—face distinct challenges and opportunities. This Solutions Session explores how gender- and age-responsive policies can advance inclusive social development through two interlinked dimensions:

1. Social Integration & Inclusion – advancing participation, dignity, and rights through gender-responsive ageing policies.
2. Poverty Eradication & Decent Work – promoting fair, inclusive, and gender-responsive economies that ensure income security and value care across the life course.

The session will spotlight cross-regional innovations and multi-stakeholder partnerships that empower older women and promote equality across generations.
