Preparatory Process
In the first five-year cycle of the global
review and appraisal of the Madrid International Plan
of Action on Ageing (MIPAA), the UN Commission for Social
Development invited regional commissions to convene regional
conferences to consider the findings of national reviews,
share experiences and good practices, and identify priorities
for future action. In the UNECE region, the Government
of Spain has proposed to organize and host the UNECE Ministerial
Conference on Ageing in León
from 6 to 8 November 2007.
