- April – June 2019: Toward Health Aging
- July – September 2019: Age-Friendly Environments
- October – December 2019: Addressing Inequalities
Human Rights of Older Persons and Agenda 2030 is the first webinar in the series and will address key areas for implementation of the Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that ensure it fulfils its mandate for older persons.
