lpv:translated text	"With the demographic changes taking place in the European Union, the number of older people is growing rapidly and we must address major challenges: meet the higher demand for healthcare, adapt health systems to the needs of an ageing population while keeping them sustainable in societies with a smaller workforce. At present, poverty is very widespread among elderly people, because in many EU Member States pensions and other social benefits are being reduced dramatically, so it is important to devise sustainable financing systems for long-term care provision to finance eldercare provision. We must also set minimum standards for all care sectors, including minimum wages. I would like to point out that we must reduce health inequalities and safeguard older people in the community and in care settings. We must also fight against the social exclusion of older people and any type of discrimination based on age. We must safeguard the conditions for active ageing and ensure a dignified and fulfilling life for older people."@en1
