During times of crisis,including pandemics,climate change,and forced migration,much of the discourse in ageing research and intervention centers on the vulnerabilities of older adults.Unfortunately,the valuable contributions of older adults to post-disaster recovery and healing are often overlooked and undervalued.Our aim in this scoping review is to shed light on the critical contributions of older forced migrants to post-migration recovery.We set the scene by introducing the two significant global demographic changes of the twenty-first century:forced migration and ageing.We provide a discourse on older forced migrants,ageing in situations of forced migration,and some of the challenges faced by older forced migrants.We then present some of the substantial roles of older forced migrants in post-migration recovery,including building resilience,contributing to culture and language transfer,providing emotional support,offering mentorship and leadership,participating in community building,and fostering social integration.We close by highlighting some of the lessons that can be drawn from understanding the unique roles played by older adults in post-forced migration recovery and the key actions necessary to promote these roles.
