TheNational Center for Social Research has a number of different research groups working on issues relating to ageing at the moment that are quite interesting. From quality of life to ethnic dimensions of the elderly, I'm sure they would be a great partner for RED.

They were behind the research done on the abuse of elderly at home that was published a few weeks ago. This as an incredible set of results, proving that the vulnerability of the elderly at home can lead to abuse from even their closest relatives. This is such an important problem that it has lead to the creation of so-called "dignity guardians" that "will include representatives from Help the Aged, Action on Elder Abuse and Which?".
