Families, Intergenerational Bonds, and Aging in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Isabella Aboderin1, Jaco Hoffman2.   

Abstract

This Research Note proposes a rationale, and offers a set of initial parameters, for an explicit effort to forge a policy and scientifically relevant family gerontology for Africa. It builds on a critical appraisal of dominant policy discourses in the region and existing research efforts on families and aging, specifically in sub-Saharan Africa.
