Met dank overgenomen van Directoraat-generaal Ondernemingen en industrie (ENTR) i, gepubliceerd op vrijdag 20 april 2012.

The pilot European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing aims to increase the average healthy lifespan in the EU by 2 years by 2020.

It pursues a triple win for Europe:

Improving the health and quality of life of Europeans with a focus on older people;

Supporting the long-term sustainability and efficiency of health and social care systems;

Enhancing the competitiveness of EU industry through business and expansion in new markets.

Why focus on ageing?

Active and healthy ageing is a societal challenge shared by all European countries. It is an opportunity for Europe to establish itself as a global leader that is capable of providing innovative responses.
