Dr. Teerawichitchainan, with colleagues, has recently published “Navigating aging and health with limited family ties across societies: Challenges, adaptations, and policy responses” in Social Science & Medicine. This overview introduces a special issue examining ageing with limited family ties across nine studies and multiple countries. It emphasizes that limited family ties take diverse forms and do not uniformly produce negative outcomes. Their effects depend on individual resources, relationships, gender, socioeconomic conditions, cultural norms, and available support. The issue calls for more inclusive care, housing, health, and planning systems.
