Staying connected and engaged to age well means supporting the right of older people to make their own decisions, with options for supported decision-making if needed, providing clear, respectful, and accessible information to help people understand their rights and make informed choices and encouraging self-advocacy to ensure individual needs and feelings are expressed and respected.
Federation Council believes all people have a right to access information in order to make informed decisions. For this people need to be able to choose how and when they access information and the information needs to be provided in a variety of ways.
