On October 14th, the first International Conference on Aging Civilization, jointly initiated by the Aging Civilization Think Tank and the Jiangsu Moral Development Think Tank, opened in Yixing, Wuxi. At the parallel forum on "Elderly Welfare and National Strategy", Wang Zengwen, a professor at the School of Politics and Public Administration of Wuhan University and deputy director of the Social Security Research Center, shared cutting-edge views on actively addressing aging.

Is aging a background or a variable? "Wang Zengwen first raised this question. In his opinion, aging should be viewed as a background.

What are the issues to consider in this context? Has there been follow-up on elderly care services, and is the connection between elderly care services and pension insurance smooth; The elderly are beginning to live longer, while the proportion of disabled people is constantly increasing. In this process, is there a good connection between long-term care insurance and long-term care services? Wang Zengwen believes that these are some challenges faced in the context of aging.

How to solve the problem? In this process, we need to strengthen actuarial science, coupled with caring services, to connect medical security and medical services, and push the aging civilization towards a more modern process. "Wang Zengwen reflected on the financing mechanism of medical insurance, believing that a systematic institutional concept of fairness and risk sharing awareness should be established, and the medical insurance financing mechanism should be improved through integration and coordination.

At the same time, he also shared his views on how elderly people can actively integrate into society. We should focus more on the elderly as human resources, and make efforts in various dimensions to activate their intrinsic motivation. We should connect with the market and achieve active social participation, including participating in volunteer services, community governance, and engaging in income generating work
