Abstract

The article discusses the urgent problems of increasing life expectancy and involving older people in the active social space in accordance with the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No.204 of May 7, 2018 “On national goals and strategic tasks for development of the Russian Federation for the period until 2024”. The article considers the term ‘productive longevity’ as a comprehensive idea of the tasks facing the authorities in this direction. It is noted that the regulatory framework provides the basis for the development and implementation of the program of systemic support and improvement of the quality of life of older citizens. The author proposes to consolidate the main signs of active longevity, which could be considered as criteria for the involvement and participation of various ministries and departments in fulfilling the tasks formulated by the Presidential Decree. In addition, the features of public administration by solving the problem of active longevity are considered. The need for interagency cooperation, as well as the creation of a federal portal on the Internet, is noted, where all available opportunities for the older generation will be laid out in the public domain: for the field of healthcare, education, and creative implementation. The need for targeted use of capital investments and systematic use of the resources laid down for the implementation of the program is emphasized.
