Intergenerational Solidarity the way Forward

To mark the second European Day and as a contribution to the 2010 European Year against Poverty and Social Exclusion, the coalition decided to publish a joint brochure to demonstrate the relevance of intergenerational solidarity in different policy frameworks and provide recommendations on how greater solidarity between generations can be promoted in various policy areas to help provide an environment where the contribution of everyone is valued and everyone is empowered to play a part.
With this joint brochure we wish to launch a debate on the impact of demographic change in today’s context of global recession and the urgent need to develop fair and sustainable solutions to ensure the well being of all in the long term.
