This report summarizes the
major findings of a survey undertaken by the Population Activities Unit
of the UN Economic Commission for Europe in collaboration with the U.S.
National Institutes on Aging on aging-related research carried out in
Europe. "The goals of the survey were to take stock of population
ageing-related research in the European countries, to identify
innovative data collection and research strategies and high-quality
survey instruments that can be used throughout the region in future
data collection and research efforts, and to find out what type of
cross-national ageing research should be initiated in Europe during the
coming years." A companion volume entitled "Directory of
Population Ageing-Related Research Projects in Europe" is being
published simultaneously.
