Guiding principles

All partners shared the following principles:

  • A shared commitment to science applied to the improvement of human wellbeing.

  • Ageing research requires a multi-disciplinary perspective.

  • Europe is not presently maximising its considerable resources and not currently improving wellbeing and quality of life as rapidly as possible.

  • A new vision of ageing is required which emphasises the positive potential of older people.

  • The great potential for social innovation in this field has not been sufficiently exploited.
