Abstract: Abstract In 2005, the European Commission (EC) published its “green paper” Confronting Demographic Change: A New Solidarity Between the Generations, which stated: Demographic changes are creating a new society, and these changes are set to speed up from 2010 onwards: ever fewer young people and young adults, ever more older workers, pensioners and very elderly people. Our societies will have to invent new ways of liberating the potential of young people and older citizens. Dealing with these changes will require the contribution of all those involved: new forms of solidarity must be developed between the generations, based on mutual support and the transfer of skills and experience. (European Commission, 2005, p. 23)
