This September 2025, CommonAge, in partnership with the International Federation on Ageing (IFA), proudly supported the participation of 9 outstanding bursary recipients from across Africa and Asia at the 16th Global Conference on Ageing in Cape Town, South Africa. These emerging leaders in ageing, health, and social development brought fresh perspectives, lived experiences, and innovative ideas to the global stage, contributing to the conference theme, “YEBO/YES! Action on Ageing:
Evidence | Policy | Practice“.
Ahead of the conference, CommonAge held its Annual General Meeting on 8 September, bringing together members from across the Commonwealth to reflect on the year’s milestones, strengthen a shared vision for ageing, and chart a bold course for the future. The highlight of the month being the Memorandum of Understanding signed between CommonAge & HelpAge International.
