OUR MISSION
To make sure the rights of older adults are
protected, valued and
understood.

We are creating a bilingual Older Person’s Human Rights Indicator Framework (OPRIF) web-based data repository dedicated to advancing and protecting the rights of older adults. Guided by the United Nations Principles for Older Persons,  we aim to empower communities with data to recognize, monitor, and advocate for the dignity and wellbeing of older individuals.

OUR GOALS
I
Promote Awareness & Advocacy
Provide accessible research driven data and resources to educate communities and support advocacy efforts focused on the human rights of older adults.
II
Enable

Data-Driven Community Action
Offer customizable tools that allow organizations and individuals to monitor, assess, and respond to local needs, ensuring that older adults' rights are recognized and prioritized.
III
Foster
Collaboration and Knowledge Sharing
Build a platform for stakeholders—policymakers, service providers, and communities—to share insights, best practices, and strategies that protect and uplift the rights of older adults across Canada.
Our Vision
A society where every older adult's rights are safeguarded,
their dignity honored, and their voices heard.
