Offer Description

Contemporary Issues in Ageing in Ghana: A Multidisciplinary Approach by Akye Essuman and colleagues from the Centre for Ageing Studies at the University of Ghana explores one of the most pressing demographic challenges of our time—ageing. As Ghana’s elderly population continues to rise, this book brings together perspectives from health, social science, and economics to advocate for a national strategy that recognizes and supports the ageing population.
This scholarly work addresses the societal neglect of older persons, while providing a roadmap for policymakers, researchers, and development agencies to rethink their approach to elderly care. With ageing now a major issue across Africa and the globe, this volume seeks to stimulate deeper academic dialogue, practical solutions, and investment in ageing research.
