From 2012, the population aged 60 and over will increase by two million people per year.
We therefore need to establish a framework for action aimed at raising awareness of the contribution older people can make to society and at strengthening the dialogue between generations. The European Commission has decided to launch this initiative with the aim of creating new and improved employment opportunities and working conditions for the growing number of older people in Europe, helping them to play an active role in society.
The challenge for all stakeholders is to improve the options available to older people, intervening in sectors as diverse as employment, health care, social services, adult education, voluntary work, housing, information services and transport. Thanks to policies promoting active ageing, older people will be offered more opportunities and will be able to carry on contributing to the common good.
With the adoption today of this report, each Member State will also be required to inform the Commission of its work programme, communicating in detail the national activities planned for the European Year."@en1
