Human Growth and Development / Unit 16   HGD 2285 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Retirement Around the World

Captions available

The idea

Retirement systems differ: South Africa pays a means-tested pension from sixty, Japan runs two public pension systems, and Nepal's small allowances leave heavy reliance on family.

In practice

Jamaica providing free home services for all older adults, and Canada a contribution-based pension.

Where people slip

The course describes these systems and makes no policy comparison.
