About 1.5 million citizens aged 65 and over live in the Republic of Belarus. Caring for people of retirement age is one of the priority tasks for the state. The country has created conditions to support the older generation, fully realize its potential, increase the duration and quality of life.
Every year on October 1st is celebrating the Day of the Elderly in Belarus. In 2022, on the occasion of the Day of the Elderly, the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Belarus approved the action plan of the republican action «Respect, Care, Responsibility». The action is aimed at drawing public attention to the issues of support by children of their elderly parents.
Creating conditions for the participation of older people in the life of the country contributes to the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
