Annotation | This publication is part of the MA:IMI project (Mainstreaming Ageing: Indicators to Monitor Implementation), an institutional collaboration between the European Centre for Social Welfare Policy and Research (ECV) and the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE). It aims to provide governments, stakeholders and the broader public with a statistical portrait of cross-national trends and comparisons on population ageing in Europe and North-America. It analyses how voluntary commitment as well as public and private provision of care can work together to help older people live independently as long as possible. It provides easily accessible information on data and facts for academic experts and researchers to aid comparative analysis of healthy ageing and long-term care. It covers data and information on demography, social situation of older people, health, informal care, migrant care workers, public long-term care policies and expenditure for the countries of the UNECE, the United States and Canada. It is meant as a tool to inform policy debate and inform decision-making by policy-makers. (RH). |
