Shughuli hii imeendelea kufanyika katika kata za mfano za Nyakahanga ,Kiruruma na Rwabwere .Lengo la shughuli hii ni kuwawezesha wazee kuzifahamu stahiki na haki zao kama zinavyoanishwa katika sera mbali mbali za kitaifa ( Sera ya afya ,Sera ya wazee ,sera ya maji ,Sera ya Taifa ya UKIMWI ) na MKUKUTA.

Aidha ,vikundi vya ufuatiliaji wa haki hizi vimeundwa na mafanikio yake ni kwamba katika kata hizo wawakilishi 2 wa wazee wameunganishwa katika kamati za maendeleo za kata ili kuwakilisha mawazo ya wazee .
