The Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) is a prominent research infrastructure focused on the complexities of population ageing in Europe. Established in 2004, SHARE operates in 27 European countries and Israel, gathering harmonised longitudinal data from individuals aged 50 and older. Functioning as a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC), SHARE-ERIC ensures stability, coordination across nations, data comparability, and significant policy impact while maintaining scientific independence. Its methodological strengths include a longitudinal design and a multidisciplinary approach that allow for effective cross-country comparisons. The extensive data produced by SHARE enriches scientific knowledge, influencing policy decisions on pension reform, healthcare, and healthy ageing, thereby enhancing the European Research Area’s capabilities in delivering high-quality social science research.

摘要

The Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) is a prominent research infrastructure focused on the complexities of population ageing in Europe. Established in 2004, SHARE operates in 27 European countries and Israel, gathering harmonised longitudinal data from individuals aged 50 and older. Functioning as a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC), SHARE-ERIC ensures stability, coordination across nations, data comparability, and significant policy impact while maintaining scientific independence. Its methodological strengths include a longitudinal design and a multidisciplinary approach that allow for effective cross-country comparisons. The extensive data produced by SHARE enriches scientific knowledge, influencing policy decisions on pension reform, healthcare, and healthy ageing, thereby enhancing the European Research Area’s capabilities in delivering high-quality social science research.
