According to the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, it is launching a series of Policy Briefs on Ageing that highlights strategies for policymakers and offer good practice examples for the variety of policy contexts found in the region. It said, while working age adults currently make up the largest share of the population in the UNECE region and percentages of dependent children and older adults are relatively small, this situation is changing rapidly. The policy brief include the French Plan that tackles ageing and its consequences from different angles<br/>simultaneously, suggesting strategies in the areas of prevention, health and living environments of older persons, including infrastructure, technical aids and urban development.<br/><br/>
