| Abstract | The growth in longitudinal datasets on ageing have resulted from a recent global initiative, in a large part encouraged and partially funded by the NIA, over the past 20 years in numerous countries eager to understand the complexities of their ageing societies. In the main these studies aim to collect data on population ageing in terms of social, medical and environmental factors. Accordingly the studies being compared in this review focus primarily on health, wellbeing and social issues. These studies have made it possible to measure, evaluate and understand a wide variety of determinants of population change and helped to identify the challenges faced on many levels for the twenty first century and beyond. They have enabled organisations, health care service providers and government more readily able to anticipate and be responsive to the need of the dynamics of the population change as not only the population rapidly increases but faces a significant rise in the percentage of elderly persons. This review looks at the aim of each study, comparisons in methodology, key policy themes, benefits, collaborations with other datasets, gaps and challenges and key findings to date. For further information, an appendix is attached with the contact details of the Principal investigator and study website. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
