in order to improve Policies and implement
interventions targeted to address elderly’s needs.

of the Council of the European Union,
FederAnziani will organize the European Day
for Health Rights, headed by the ltalian Minister
of Health, Beatrice Lorenzin, and the Dean
of the University of Brescia and President

level, in which representatives of institutions,
