Ageing in Sub-Saharan Africa : Spaces and Practices of Care PDF
Edited by Jaco Hoffman, Katrien Pype
Part of the Ageing in a Global Context series
Description
This collection of in-depth ethnographic analysis examines the impact of local and global transformations on the care, or lack of care, older people receive in Sub-Saharan Africa.
This volume provides the pan-African evidence and analysis needed to move forward debates about how to address the long term care needs of this vulnerable population. Case studies from different regions of the continent (southern, central, east and west Africa) examine formal and informal care, including inter- and intra-generational care, retirement homes, care in the context of poverty, HIV/AIDS and migration.
