00:02The European Commission presented its strategy on intergenerational fairness on Thursday
00:08to make sure policies adopted today will improve tomorrow's opportunities.
00:13The non-binding document aims to amplify young people's voices and to reduce territorial disparities.
00:19We must not leave any generation behind, European Commissioner Glenn Mikalev said.
00:24The intergenerational fairness strategy proposes an intergenerational fairness contract.
00:31This is a symbolic contract, it's not a contract that we sign, but it reflects a commitment,
00:39it reflects a promise that we make politically.
00:43The strategy sets up 15 actions, such as creating an index to identify opportunities and gaps between generations.
00:51An AI tool will also be launched to better evaluate the long-term consequences of policies in various fields,
00:58such as the environment, employment, health and pensions.
