Description du projet
Comprendre le processus de vieillissement dans les pays de l’UE
La question du vieillissement de la population représente un défi majeur dans l’UE du fait de son impact sur un ensemble de politiques connexes, comme celles concernant les retraites, les soins et les réformes de la santé à long terme. Le projet SHARE-COHESION, financé par l’UE, est une infrastructure de recherche qui vise à mieux comprendre les défis liés au processus de vieillissement dans les États membres de l’UE. L’objectif principal du projet consiste à collecter des données de haute qualité combinant une comparabilité transnationale, transdisciplinaire, longitudinale et stricte qui pourront être utilisées pour la recherche. Les résultats permettront une comparaison transnationale du statut social, sanitaire et économique des citoyens de l’UE de plus de 50 ans, ainsi qu’une estimation comparative des politiques liées au vieillissement, dans l’objectif de soutenir les programmes de développement et d’innovation.
Objectif
SHARE, the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe, is a research infrastructure to better understand and cope with the challenges and chances of population ageing. The main objective of SHARE is to provide excellent data for aging research through a combination of (a) transdisciplinarity, (b) longitudinality and (c) European coverage with strict cross-national comparability through ex-ante harmonisation. With its recent seventh wave, SHARE succeeded in covering all EU member states in cooperation with the British Isles Surveys (UK and Ireland). The coverage of all EU member states (plus Switzerland and Israel) is particularly attractive for both scientific and Commission users because it permits cross-national comparisons of the economic, health and social situation of EU citizens aged 50 and over and allows for comparative evaluations of aging-related policies such as pension, health and long-term care reforms.
The project will support the supra-national innovation and development tasks during Waves 8-10 of SHARE, thereby improving the scientific state-of-the-art of SHARE and cross-national cohesion across all 28 SHARE member countries. It addresses all seven targets of this call and the related sustainability criteria. Scientific innovation encompasses new questionnaire content including device-based measures; development encompasses more efficient survey methods including new electronic tools. The project will also fund training as it is instrumental especially for the scientifically less developed Member States and its participating SMEs. The costs of collecting the SHARE data in the Member States as well as routine common costs will not be borne by this project but by SHARE-ERIC through contributions by the Member States and a policy DG.
