Tento dokument poskytuje pracovníkům a partnerům UNHCR pokyny k ochraně práv starších osob v situacích nuceného vysídlení nebo absence státní příslušnosti.

Při reakci na fáze nuceného vysídlení (útěk, vysídlení, návrat, znovuusídlení nebo integrace) musí pracovníci a partneři UNHCR zajistit, aby práva starších osob na nezávislost, účast, seberealizaci, důstojnost a péči byla dodržována bez diskriminace. Za tímto účelem by týmy měly rozvíjet důkladné porozumění jak potřebám, tak schopnostem starších osob ve vysídlených populacích.
