Summary
Invites Member States to adapt the conceptual framework to national conditions and to consider formulating national programmes for the Year; requests the Secretary-General to monitor activities for the Year and to make appropriate coordinating arrangements, bearing in mind that the Department for Policy Coordination and Sustainable Development of the Secretariat has been designated the UN focal point on ageing; encourages the Secretary-General to allocate sufficient resources for promoting and coordinating activities for the Year; decides that henceforth the term "older persons" should be substituted for the term "the elderly", in conformity with the UN Principles for Older Persons, with the result that the Year and the Day concerned shall be called the International Year of Older Persons and the International Day of Older Persons.
