ABSTRACT:
Globally, the proportion of older people is rising in all countries. Across the globe, older people are more likely than any other group to experience exclusion and numerous challenges that jeopardise their well-being. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) establish targets for the world to attain by 2030 in order to improve welfare and prosperity for everyone. "No one is left behind" is the fundamental pledge of SDG. In light of this, the paper highlights different aspects of older- age exclusion; Major concerns associated with specific SDGs and ageing. In addition, some recommendations for age- inclusive sustainable development are outlined in the context of India.
