A/HRC/42/43 emergencies in order to ensure coordination throughout all phases of emergency management. The objective is to engage in data-sharing and service backup, and to establish a detailed map of the given community, identifying points of higher risk, such as the largest concentrations of older persons, which would also serve as a basis for community-wide evacuation and response plans for older persons, particularly those with disabilities. Such evacuation plans should envisage transport, and medications and other essential supplies, as well as separate and specialized shelter areas for older persons with special vulnerabilities (such as those with a disability or affected by non-communicable diseases, chronic conditions or mental health issues). 101. The Independent Expert reiterates her view that the lack of a comprehensive and integrated international legal instrument to promote and protect the rights and dignity of older persons has significant practical implications, including for older persons in emergency situations. She stresses in particular that current instruments do not make the issues of ageing specific or sufficiently visible, and therefore preclude older persons from the full enjoyment of their human rights, particularly in emergency situations. 17
