Abstract
The European Journal of Ageing in the European Year for Active Ageing
Highlights
The European Commission has marked the year 2012 as the European Year for Active Ageing and Solidarity between Generations
Based on the premise that Europeans are living longer and staying healthier than ever before, the European Commission states that the time has come to realise these opportunities
The emphasis clearly is on employability and workability, given the dramatic demographic shifts in the workforce all over Europe, and on living independently, health care, social services, adult learning, volunteering, housing, IT services and transport
Summary
The European Commission has marked the year 2012 as the European Year for Active Ageing and Solidarity between Generations. An important initiative is the pilot European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing. This triple aim should be realised by 2020 in the three policy areas of prevention and health promotion, integrated care and independent living of older people.
