520 _aThe Ministry of Social Development commissioned this review to explore the learning and insights from the initiatives that received funding from the Elder Abuse Prevention Fund (EAPF). This review has gathered practice-based insights and information contributing to the broader knowledge base to enhance understanding of the scale, prevalence, and nature of the abuse of older people in New Zealand. The project involved a review of relevant documentation and nine semi-structured interviews with staff involved in the planning and implementation of the EAPF-funded initiatives (‘the participants’). About the Elder Abuse Prevention Fund. Abuse of older people (also known as elder abuse) in New Zealand is an understudied issue, and there is a lack of comprehensive research and public awareness regarding the mistreatment of older people. The abuse of older people (AOP), encompassing various forms of physical, emotional, financial, and psychological harm, and neglect, often remains hidden due to societal attitudes and the covert nature of abuse. In 2022, the Office for Seniors provided eleven one-off grants of up to $25,000 for initiatives aiming to prevent the abuse of older people through the Elder Abuse Prevention Fund (EAPF). (From the Executive summary). Record #8725.
