16 Sum up Support given to the elderly and taking care of the elderly are two distinct concepts and living together with children may not truly mean economic security for the elderly and also depends upon direction of transfer of resources. At aggregate level, living arrangement at the best indicate co-residence Need to further investigate following aspects at the micro level for better programming Direction and extent to which inter-generational transfer of resources happens ; especially in female-headed households More in-depth inquiry of economic, social and emotional support systems from a gender perspective
