“…Analisis kemiskinan pada lansia menarik perhatian dengan keterbatasan pendekatan dan informasi, serta dilakukan secara parsial pada saat ini. Pengukuran tingkat kemiskinan saja tidak menjelaskan penyebab kemiskinan (Khan et al, 2017). Beberapa faktor penentu lansia miskin antara lain wilayah, etnis, pendidikan, dan komposisi usia (Vu & Nguyen, 2021).…”

Penduduk lanjut usia adalah seseorang yang telah mencapai usia 60 tahun atau lebih dan sebagian dari mereka hidup dalam kemiskinan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat karakteristik kemiskinan lansia di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta, baik dari sisi ukuran maupun determinan kemiskinan lanjut usia (lansia) terkait. Penelitian berdasarkan data sekunder hasil Survei Sosial Ekonomi Nasional Maret 2019. Analisis secara deskriptif dilanjutkan inferensia dengan metode regresi logistik. Dengan kriteria garis kemiskinan Badan Pusat Statistik dan perhitungan per kapita didapatkan jumlah lansia miskin di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta sebanyak 96.412 jiwa atau sekitar 17,4 persen dari seluruh lansia di daerah tersebut. Bila garis kemiskinan naik menjadi 1,2 kalinya, maka tingkat kemiskinan lansia di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta akan meningkat tajam menjadi 27,4 persen. Bila kita gunakan kriteria ART equivalen maka persentase lansia miskin di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta didapatkan nilai jauh lebih kecil. Daerah tempat tinggal, ijazah tertinggi lansia, lapangan pekerjaan lansia, penerima BPJS PBI, dan jumlah anggota rumah tangga, serta kelompok umur adalah determinan penting terhadap status kemiskinan lansia di DIY. Perlu kebijakan yang spesifik khususnya peningkatan cakupan jaminan kesehatan bagi lansia miskin.

“…In developed countries, the combination of strong social security systems, well-developed capital markets, and small households contribute to higher living standards for the aging. Due to demographic, social and economic changes, there is a need for an effective system of income provision for the aging (Khan et al, 2017). Past studies show that most adult children in Malaysia take responsibility for providing financial support to their parents despite facing various dilemmas and financial constraints Chan & DaVanzo, 1996).…”

The gradually increase of life expectation within ageing society will have an impact on the burden and dependent on children in terms of care, health needs, emotional and social support as well as finances from adult children is the most important factor in the survival of the elderly. This article aims to explore the tangible and intangible alimony to aging parents among adult children. Articles retrieved related to the concept of tangible and intangible alimony to the older person were identified through Scopus and Web of Science (WoS). The findings of this SLR found that 20 articles related to the theme of older person alimony could be extracted as the majority of the articles concentrated on tangible support. The main research gap that emerges is that the aging parents long for intangible support such as emotional support, social activities, biopsychosocial and health information, chit-chat and companionship to avoid loneliness. This phenomenon appeared post COVID-19 pandemic when most aging experience loneliness and depression. This article proposes that community-based intangible support can be utilized in urban and rural areas in an Asian setting. Further research is need to study how intangible support elements for older parents can be successfully implement through the family and community based social work approach.

The Nigerian population is undergoing demographic transition, with a rising population of older persons. The population of the older persons in Nigeria is estimated to be around 6 million and a continuous increase is projected as a developing country in the second stage of demographic transition, with its high birth rate and lower death rate. There are usually three main challenges confronting this age group. The first is poverty, due to loss or reduction of earning power. The second is the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, with the accompanying increased healthcare utilization and financial burdens. Elder abuse has also been gaining attention as a major social problem. Tackling these challenges requires multidimensional approach, joint collaborations and involvement of many stakeholders, hinging on strong government and political commitment, which is critical for effective implementation of any policy. It is essential to engage all stakeholders including; governments, institutions, organizations, civil society groups, private sector, community leaders, youth and youth groups, health-care providers, researchers, caregivers, families, older people, and Daramola et al.; IJTDH, 34(4): 1-8, 2018; Article no.IJTDH.46715 2 the general public towards developing capacities for translating internationally agreed policy frameworks into practical realities and ensuring that older persons in Nigeria enjoy income security, access to health care and not subjected to abuse.
