Africans are aging rapidly, but there are few resources to support older people

15 Sep 2025

Description

Africa is the world’s youngest continent — but it’s ageing faster than ever. By 2050, nearly 200 million Africans will be over 60. What will this mean for families, economies and the future of care? DW’s Josey Mahachi speaks with Frank Yiga and Wanjiku Joyce Kairu, founder of the Purity Elderly Care Foundation and a leading voice on ageing and elder care.
