Elderly women rinse their mouths with holy water at a shrine in Tokyo. The UN Population Fund has urged governments to build safety nets to ensure that older people have income security and access to essential health and social services as the world's elderly population grows. The UN agency said discrimination toward and poverty among the aged are still far too prevalent in many countries. It released its report Monday, Oct. 1, 2012 in Tokyo, capital of the world's fastest-aging country. (AP Photo/Itsuo Inouye)
