On the basis of its many years of experience and good practises with regard to activities for the elderly, the City of Ljubljana was invited to serve as an evaluator in a project with the aim of setting up the European award for Silver Economy Initiatives.

The project, with nine partners from eight European Union countries participating, is starting in autumn and is going to continue for two years. During that time the participants are going to look for innovative solutions for the employment of the elderly and set up an award for the promotion of creativity and employment of elderly citizens.
