Help the Aged works with partners across the EU to ensure that older people's voices are heard at a European level, and that policies and laws made by European politicians are sensitive to the needs of older people. In recent years, successful lobbying at the EU level has led to progress for older people across all member states. The ban on age discrimination in employment and training (due to come into force in 2006) was the result of successful lobbying at the European level by age organisations. Help the Aged works particularly with countries new to the European Union to support their older people's organisations as they adapt to new European structures, and to new forms of engagement with their national governments which come about as a result of European Integration. This section covers the work we are doing in Europe and with European partners.
