In 1990, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) designated October 1 as the International Day of Older Persons by its resolution 45/106. The establishment of the day was preceded by initiatives such as the Vienna International Plan of Action on Ageing.
According to UN predictions, the number of older persons worldwide is projected to more than double, reaching more than 1.5 billion persons in 2050.
