ACTIVE AGEING INDEX

French Agglomeration Grand Annecy Experiment

17 june 2019

CONTEXT EXPLANATION

Grand Annecy Agglomeration

A NEW TERRITORY CREATED IN 2017

• Grand Annecy Agglomeration : 34 towns and more than 200 000 inhabitants (since 2017)

• A Social needs analysis driven in 2018 => Aim : identify the needs of the elderlypopulation and provide a picture of the territory population

Result : Territory getting older, like the French national demographic evolution

Wish : Make policies to face ageing the best way

• « Imagine the Grand Annecy » => Innovating approach to think

and shape the new territory with citizens

How to live together on our territory in 2050 ? How to build policies by solicitingcitizens ? …

How to consider ageing as a strenght for the territory ?

PROCESS OF THE STUDY

Study driven by a consultant =>

A CONSULTANT RECRUITED TO LEAD SOCIAL ANALYSIS + AAI

• Determine indicators that can be calculated (available data)

• Determine indicators that need additionnal survey

• Solution to collect non-available data

• Determine relevant (or not) indicators at local scale

A part of the specification dedicated to AAI before recruiting consultant

Data coming from 3 sources

• INSEE

• Pension funds

• Special survey (social analysis) : 2600 people answered

Four main domains preserved, but some adjustments inside

each

ADJUSTMENTS

• 2 indicators instead of 4

• Care to children / Care to older adults => Grouped in 1 indicator

• Political participation : difficult to obtain at the local scale

=> Was replaced by another indicator which makes sense according to the territory project (the will to share the knowledge with young people)

• Material deprevation for elderly people => deleted

• Lifelong learning => deleted

• Mental well-being : indicator felt as invasive by people => Replaced by another indicator (feeling of isolation)

RESULTS AND FUTURE CALCULATING

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Without any weight Applying weight on « isolation and poverty » indicators

28,34 40,97

39,33 39,33

85,42 87,25

58,63 68,18

AAI 52,93 58,93

FUTURE PROSPECTS

A STUDY TO RE-CONDUCT IN A FEW YEARS

2 KINDS OF UPDATES

PARTIAL UPDATING EACH 1-2 YEARS

Population : small representative sampleof elderly people

Who could do it ? Students / Partnershipwith university

What ? Only few indicators to update each time

GLOBAL UPDATING EACH 5-10 YEARS

Population : representative sample of elderly people (like the survey conducted in 2018)

Who could do it ? Grand Annecy Agglomeration, in the framework of a new social analysis

What ? All indicators needed to update AAI

Which weight ? Political choice will have to determine it
