This report is particularly related to my interest in education for older people, and combatting ageism: it has recommendations for upskilling and reskilling of older people. Sadly, information literacy isn't mentioned, but it does talk about aspects of digital literacy.

reskilling and upskilling: learning programmes for older adults. UNESCO

The report describes examples from Colombia, Japan, Singapore, Sweden and the United States of America (USA) taking different approaches. For example there is the example of The Senior University: A lifelong learning experience for older adults at the Universidad del Rosario, Colombia. The report ends with recommendations.
