AAI – Active Ageing Index
AAI – Active Ageing Index
The Active Ageing Index research project has aimed at providing a new tool for policy makers to enable them to devise evidence-informed strategies in dealing with the challenges of population ageing and its impacts on society. It is predicated on the insight that, in tackling issues associated with population ageing, the successful measures are those which enable and increase older people's participation in the labour market and in social and family activities. By these, and by additional means of access to healthcare, security and lifelong learning, it is commonly agreed that older people are empowered to live independent, healthy and secure lives. The tool that has emerged is called the Active Ageing Index 2012 ('AAI').

The Active Ageing Index research project has aimed at providing a new tool for policy makers to enable them to devise evidence-informed strategies in dealing with the challenges of population ageing and its impacts on society. It is predicated on the insight that, in tackling issues associated with population ageing, the successful measures are those which enable and increase older people's participation in the labour market and in social and family activities. By these, and by additional means of access to healthcare, security and lifelong learning, it is commonly agreed that older people are empowered to live independent, healthy and secure lives. The tool that has emerged is called the Active Ageing Index 2012 ('AAI').
