New Priorities for Health Care Needs and Livelihoods (including COVID-19 responses). This programme aims to maximize the potential of older women and men in five communities of Moldova to improve their health, well-being, social participation and communication. It will provide support to the vulnerable older women and men to increase their access to healthcare and manage their chronic health conditions, with a focus on hypertension, diabetes with support of volunteers from their peers. These volunteers support the needs of vulnerable older women and men that will be identified through the baseline survey inbuilt in the project They are trained to measure blood pressure and to monitor overall health status, including seasonal diseases, during home-care visits to older people with limited mobility. As a new element, the project will support development of HealthCare Peer Support Groups, formed from more active older people, who will meet together and exchange experiences in managing their own health. The volunteers also do referrals of urgent cases to the family doctors for those who are immobile, and will facilitate meetings of the Peer Group with presentations from different medical experts in the area of needs identified by the Peer Groups. To further increase access to healthcare, the volunteers will also facilitate roll-out of medical express tests in five communities across Moldova with support of the Ministry of Health and local Medical Centres. Activities on Active Ageing will be run - physical exercises and some sports competitions - hat will focus on social integration and participation of older people in their communities based on their needs in communication and social participation. A further component of the programme will enable older people with low income and poor nutrition, to develop age friendly livelihood activities that will support their food and income security. Study visits to the beneficiaries of successful livelihood activities will be organised for knowledge and experience transfer. Older people who do not qualify for the livelihood due to ill health or other functional vulnerability will be targeted through winter support food packages, home-visiting and participating in the Active Ageing activities. The unique direct participants of the project are estimated to be 445 vulnerable older persons (about 50 men and 395 women) in 5 target communities who experience lack of food or income security or have limited access to healthcare. The indirect project participants, will primarily be household members or dependents such as partners, children or grandchildren of direct participants.

Global AgeWatch Index: Understanding the capabilities and empowerment of older people in the BRICS countries The aim of this project is to provide an in-depth understanding of the quality of life and well-being of older people living in four of the most populous countries in the world – China (1st), India (2nd), Pakistan (6th) and Bangladesh (7th) – and feed this evidence into national and international debates about ageing and human development. To explore 5 research questions:
1. What is the conceptual pertinence of various dimensions (e.g. income security; health status; employment and other coping capacities; the enabling physical and social environments) in measuring quality of life and well-being of older people? 
2. How does the multidimensional measures of the quality of life and well-being of older people vary by five demographic and socio-economic attributes (age, gender, education, living arrangements and regions of residence (rural/urban, provinces)? To what extent the combination of these attributes may generate additive (exponential) disadvantage?
3. What are the policy contexts in which such differences across socio-economic groups prevail and what could be the role of social and economic policy in maintaining or accentuating these differences? How can policy making in one country provide important lessons for national policy formulation in other countries?   
4. What policy reforms are required in the focus countries to improve the situation of older men and older women, taking into account their demographic and socio- economic contexts?
5. What lessons can be drawn to support future editions of the Global Age Watch Index, in the choice of domains, in the selection of indicators, in the methodology of data aggregation and data comparison? What additional data is essential at the national/sub-national level, and in the international databases, to enrich analysis of quality of life and well-being of older people?
