Abstract

The experiences of elder abuse among minority populations is under-researched. This article offers a commentary on the knowledge gaps pertaining to older lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans (LGBT) people and proposes a future research agenda. It suggests that there is a need to understand the intersection of older age, sexualities and gender/gender identities and its implications for abuse in later life, especially in organisational contexts.
