Elderly Citizens' Council
The Elderly Citizens' Council was convened in 2018 by the President and First Lady of the Republic of Chile. The Council is made up of 18 representatives of civil society organizations and the private sector who work on issues related to the elderly. Its purpose is to be an advisory body that makes proposals in favor of the latter, which serve as an input for the national policy on aging. It also engages in dialogue with other state agencies (e.g., the Ministry of Health) that promote policies affecting the elderly.
