Later-Life Care and Ageing Practices: An International Landscape
Increasingly, countries are coming up with policies to cope with a growing ageing population. In some countries, policies are in place and the State is constantly coming up with newer mechanisms to cope with their country's older population.

Several studies have examined the relationship between infertility and assisted repro…
Growing Old in a Transnational Setting: Investigating Perceptions of Ageing and Changing Filial Ties Among Older Indians in Saskatoon
Numerous studies have examined the experience of growing old in a transnational context among Indians. However, in most of these studies, the older adults had immigrated as senior citizens to be with their adult children. Indians who have grown old in transnational settings have not been examined in detail in the gerontological scholarship. Adopting a cross-cultural lens, the present study focusses on perceptions of ageing among older Indians who…
