"Madam President, it is a fact that elderly people aged between 55 and 64 are subject to ageism, to age discrimination. Women in particular experience this discrimination, as well as other forms of gender discrimination due to their sex, preconceived notions, poor health or disability. The fact that 2012 will be a year of active support is encouraging, because it provides a unique opportunity for further awareness-raising about the need to mainstream the gender and age dimension in all policies, in order to prevent social exclusion and any form of racism towards the elderly. In an ageing Europe, we cannot afford to look on the ageing population as a social and economic burden. On the contrary, we have a duty to combat prejudice, to support active ageing with programmes and activities and to safeguard equal access for everyone to health care and long-term care."@en1
