Eurobarometer survey on Active Ageing

To mark the European Year, Eurostat, has released the new publication "Active ageing and solidarity between generations – a statistical portrait of the European Union 2012", prepared in collaboration with the European Commission and Eurofound. The European Year for Active Ageing and Solidarity between Generations aims to encourage all key players to do what they can to create a society where older people can play their part. It is a huge opportunity to raise awareness, to exchange good practice and, most importantly, to foster a change in attitudes and policies.
