BMC Public Health is calling for submissions to our Collection on Abuse of older people. This Collection aims to advance understanding and intervention strategies regarding the prevalence, risk factors, and consequences of the abuse of older people. We welcome submissions exploring various types of abuse, contributing factors, consequences on physical, mental, and social well-being, interventions, innovations in research methods, and policy implications for prevention and response.
This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 3: Good Health & Well-Being, SDG5: Gender Equality, and SDG10: Reduced Inequalities.
