The document discusses the AAL Programme and EU initiatives to address demographic challenges in Europe. It notes that the population is aging significantly, with more older people and fewer younger people by 2060. It outlines several EU programs and initiatives to promote active and healthy aging, including the AAL Programme, Public Health Programme, European Structural Funds, European Investment Bank, and the European Innovation Partnership on Active & Healthy Ageing. The goal is to generate innovative solutions through research, deployment, and collaboration across multiple sectors to help older adults live independently longer and improve their quality of life.
