The 'Country Reports' listed here have been a specific feature of the RC11 Newsletters since 2003. The idea of having these reports is to highlight ageing issues in countries that don't usually make the headlines. Thus, previous country reports focused on countries from South America, Eastern Europe, West Africa and South-East Asia. If you would like to write such a brief 4-5 pages country report about a country not listed yet or if you know somebody who might be interested in doing so, or if there is any country about which you would like to learn more, please do not hesitate to contact our Newsletter Editor, Andreas Hoff, at andreas.hoff@ageing.ox.ac.uk .
