The Madrid International Plan of Action on Ageing (MIPAA), adopted
at the Second World Assembly on Ageing, is the first international
agreement that specifically recognises the potential of older
people to contribute to the development of their societies. In
monitoring its implementation two key approaches are evident: a
qualitative bottom-up participatory approach and an approach that
uses quantitative indicators to monitor sustainable progress and
policies. With the European Centre for Social Welfare Policy and
Research, playing a pivotal role in the monitoring of the
implementation process, one of its key tasks has been to develop a
list of 'indicators of achievement'. This book contains extended
and revised versions of policy briefs and background papers that
support the implementation monitoring process. The analyses
included in these chapters make concrete suggestions towards
quantitative indicators, with the aim of assisting national
governments in mainstreaming ageing in their policies. The
contributors provide an overview of the current situation with
respect to population ageing and its consequences and also provide
projections for the future. The book also includes the final list
of quantitative indicators that arose out of consultations with
international experts, related to the four main topics addressed:
demography, income and wealth, labour market participation, and
social protection and financial sustainability.
