AGE Platform Europe is a European network of non-profit organisations of and for people aged 50+. We aim to voice and promote the interests of older people in the European Union and to raise awareness on the issues that concern them most. AGE’s vision encompasses an inclusive society, based on well-being for all, solidarity between generations and full entitlement to enjoy life, participate in and contribute to society. At the same time, each person’s rights and responsibilities throughout their life course have to be fully respected.
AGE’s vision encompasses an inclusive society, based on well-being for all, solidarity between generations and full entitlement to enjoy life, participate in and contribute to society. At the same time, each person’s rights and responsibilities throughout their life course have to be fully respected. We seek to combat ageism, promote human rights throughout the life course, reduce inequalities and enable everyone to live a full and dignified life. To achieve this mission: - we raise the aspirations and needs of older people bridging the gap between them and policymakers. - we transform our members’ experiences and ideas into policy proposals, advocacy, campaigning, dissemination actions and projects. - we support our members’ active involvement in AGE’s work while promoting mutual learning and networking.
