Senior citizen's network
Not only on national level or regional level, but particularly the administrative districts and municipalities in the rural area have to find ways to handle with upcoming problem situations like the increasing ageing of the society. Anyhow we are not prepared enough for the upcoming changes yet: Which infrastructure will be necessary, what are the needs of senior citizens today and in the future and with which measures can be initiated to institute the demographic change?
To come from a purely medical care of the old people and old person to an active participation in all areas of the social life. "Construction of binary network structures for senior citizens" for an example was developed where politicians and the public was sensitised on the interests of senior citizens. A virtual network, as a platform of information for the age group 50 + (http://www.forumab50.de/), with accompanying scientific investigations as to the senior citizens area in the rural area as well as a pamphlet with valuable tips for senior citizens in the region of Neumarkt is also available.
