Although people usually only talk about the ‘Family Affairs Committee’, the Committee deals with many other issues of relevance to society. Its activities are aimed at strengthening families, children and young people, making it easier to combine family life with the demands of work, and promoting equality between women and men. Against the background of the demographic changes that are occurring in our society, the Committee is particularly committed to the continuous further development of a framework that enables elderly people to live as independently as possible and to measures that encourage all generations to get involved in their communities.
