Older Refugees in the UK: A literature review. A Refugee Council Working Paper for the Older Refugees Programme [April 2006]

This is a Refugee Council Working Paper for the Older Refugees Programme, a partnership project between Age Concern England, the Refugee Council, Age Concern London and the Association of Greater London Women (AGLOW).

This literature review examines what is known about older refugees’ views, experiences and needs, what gaps exist in the knowledge and evidence base, and how these gaps are relevant to policy and practice. It also identifies examples of current policies and practices that either target or include older refugees, as well as key policies that maintain a general focus on older people which could be relevant for refugees.
