Intergenerational Fairness: What’s at stake?

Young and old, we all have a stake in what the future holds and what we would like it to look like. The same applies to future generations – those who are not born yet.

To ensure that the rights of those present and yet to arrive are respected, we would like to hear from all age groups and actors to generate a meaningful intergenerational dialogue.

Throughout 2025, we’ll continue to work together on designing a strategy that truly reflects the needs of all generations. So don’t miss out on shaping the future. 

Timeline

From February to December 2025, we will be designing the strategy, in co-creation with you.

Did you know that

  • Less than half of Europeans believe that society is fair and equal (source Eurobarometer – 2022)
  • Countries with lower age-related inequalities have higher levels of life satisfaction overall (source OECD - 2020)
  • Governments that balance the needs and interest of the present and future generations have higher levels of trust (source OECD – 2023)
