At the beginning of the European, the Committee of the Regions will invite local and regional stakeholders to discuss the issue of active ageing. The Forum will focus on a multilevel governance approach and will highlight how local and regional actors improve the conditions for active ageing in the three major thematic strands of the EY2012, each of which closely related to the competences of the CoR: Employment, Participation in Society and Independent Living. The Forum will consist of plenary sessions, confronting European and regional policy makers, and of interactive workshops, presenting best practice from all over Europe.
