Análise da implementação da política de cidade amiga do idoso no município de Pelotas/RS

Abstract

The accelerated population aging that occurs in Brazil generates new demands of this population, which must be met through public policies that meet the needs of the elderly, especially with regard to infrastructure and care guidelines. This project aims to describe and analyze the implementation of the Friendly City of the Elderly policy, in the perception of the members of the Elderly Municipal Council, in the city of Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul Brazil. All actions taken by the municipality will be described in detail, using the perception of the members of that council. These are: use of public buildings, open spaces, transportation, housing, social participation, respect, social inclusion, civic participation, employment, communication, information, community support and health services. The actions will be in different phases of implementation, and expansions will be proposed using the contributions of members of the Elderly Municipal Council.
