Major AGeing and Gender Issues in Europe

The MAGGIE project suggests a gender analysis of data produced by the FELICIE project. The main goal is to generate an analysis of the standard of living of the elderly, depending on gender and country of residence; three fields of study have been selected: health, family ties and socio-economic resources.

Coordinated by Patrick Festy and Joëlle Gaymu, the project is made up of ten partners, most of whom were already part of the previous FELICIE project.
