Tá athrú déimeagrafach ag teacht ar an Eoraip nach raibh ann riamh cheana. Faoi 2050, beidh beagnach trian de dhaonra an Aontais os cionn 65 bliana d’aois. Rachaidh daonra an Aontais atá ag aosú i bhfeidhm ar réimsí éagsúla: cúram sláinte, leas sóisialta, margadh an tsaothair agus an geilleagar. Díríonn beartais an Aontais do dhaoine scothaosta ar roinnt príomhréimsí: aosú gníomhach, cuimsiú sóisialta, cúram sláinte agus fadtéarmach, agus slándáil airgeadais. Tá gá ag an Aontas anois le straitéis chuimsitheach do dhaoine scothaosta.

I dtaobh straitéis Eorpach do dhaoine scothaosta

COVID-19, like previous epidemics infect and affect men, women and other genders differently. Whilst indications suggest that more men than women are dying of COVID-19, the impact of the (short and longer term) socio-economic effects of COVID-19 fall disproportionately on women. This infoclip shows different professions carried out by women who have suffered directly or indirectly from the consequences of the coronavirus epidemic: care workers, nurses, laboratory assistant, department store cashier, market gardeners, collective catering staff, staff in charge of cleaning and disinfection, teachers and a mother doing home schooling.
