Existing divergences must be overcome, given the unanimity about the need to strengthen the protection of the human rights of older persons and the millions of older persons waiting for their human rights to become reality.
Seniors are among the most reliant on public transport to get around including travel to the social opportunities that add to their quality of life, medical appointments and visiting family.
To support seniors advocate for their rights, needs and interests COTA Queensland are developing a new volunteer network called COTA Community Ambassadors.
We continue to actively seek recognition of the positive contribution that older people make economically and socially to Queensland. We are strong advocates for an Age-friendly Queensland promoting intergenerational interactions, to enable people to grow to their fullest capacity.
