Annotation	Age Concern England (ACE) aims to be a key partner to the new Commission for Equality and Human Rights (CEHR), and to support or challenge the Commission's work. This briefing sets out the areas ACE believes should be the priorities for such a partnership, by looking at each of CEHR's core areas, summarising the available evidence on ageing issues, and suggesting five potential objectives for each. Four core areas are examined: eliminating discrimination with fairer access to goods and services; reducing inequality, with skills and employment opportunities throughout the life course; promoting and protecting human rights through dignity, independence and control for older people; and securing good relations, by promoting understanding and inclusion across the generations.
