The “Generations Working Together for a Competitive Future” conference was held in Budapest, this year as part of the rotating EU Presidency. The event brought together high-ranking representatives from multiple countries, focusing on topics such as demographic challenges and the situation of the elderly. On 15 November during the awards ceremony, the 2024 Age-Friendly Municipality Award, the Award for the Protection of Human Dignity, the Families Award, and the Sarolta Monspart Award for the elderly were presented. It was heart-warming to hear the commendations. This year, special emphasis was placed on recognising initiatives supporting people living with dementia, fostering dementia-friendly attitudes, building communities, and supporting caregiving families. Dr Ágnes Egervári, President of Alzheimer Europe’s member in Hungary, the Social Cluster Association, received the Families Award. Huge congratulations to her and to the Social Cluster Association!
