Date: 29 October, 2026
Venue:
College of Civil Engineers
(C/ Almagro, 46 Madrid)
This meeting will bring together representatives from social organizations and European institutions associated with the ESF+, officials from the public authorities, and experts in health, social protection, and long-term care, to examine the challenges posed by an ageing population and increasing longevity. Participants will also share international experiences that are improving access to long-term care, particularly in rural areas.
The event will provide a forum for shared reflection aimed at identifying priorities, building consensus, and defining the strategic guidelines that should shape the response to these challenges in the coming years.
