United Nations Day For Older Persons -01 October 2025

Here's a combined paragraph:

The panel discussion highlighted the pressing challenge of digital literacy among older persons, particularly in relation to digital financial services, where they're vulnerable to scams and financial abuse due to the increasing prevalence of mobile money services. HelpAge Zimbabwe, represented by Mr. Kazuva, shared experiences from their work in disadvantaged communities, where limited access to phones and the internet hinders older persons from participating in and benefiting from intended programs. Furthermore, the discussion touched on issues such as the exploitation of older persons for social media views and the spread of stereotypes, like witchcraft accusations, perpetuated through the internet, underscoring the need for greater support and protection for this demographic.
