The Role of Government in Active Population Aging

Summary/Abstract: Older population of people is a specific social group whose needs emerge in the field of social politics, as an organized engagement of social community in provision of life conditions, i.e. social security of people. Older people are faced with a number of unresolved issues in nearly all aspects of life. What needs to be emphasized is their frequent exclusion from the society and very difficult financial situation. However, older people are the beneficiaries of social rights, and therefore the intervention of the government towards them needs to be qualitative and fast. That intervention includes issuance of laws, provision of assets for pension and disability insurance, qualitative health care, etc. The role of government is very important in inclusion of older persons in the social community, because government representatives are able to set the paths and define the programs for resolution of numerous problems that older population has. Due to the above mentioned reasons it is important to identify positions of old persons in the local community, and establish the possibilities for their active aging.
