本次级方案的人口部门定期对《马德里老龄问题国际行动计划》和《国际人口与发展会议行动纲领》的执行情况进行区域审查，并制作关于将老龄化问题纳入主流的政策简报和路线图以及支持欧洲经委会各国循证政策的监测工具。2018 年，针对欧洲经委会成员国作出的决定，即推动把积极老龄化作为国家和区域老龄化政策的核心概念和业务方法，本次级方案通过纳入更多非欧洲联盟成员国和更多时间段，以及支持并指导在国家以下和地方各级制定积极老龄化指数，扩大了该指数作为一种监测工具和综合决策框架的使用范围。
The population component of the subprogramme conducts on a regular basis regional reviews on the implementation of the Madrid International Plan of Action on Ageing and the Programme of Action of the International Conference on Population and Development and develops policy briefs and road maps on mainstreaming ageing as well as monitoring tools to support evidence-based policies in the ECE countries. In 2018, in response to the decision of ECE member States to advance active ageing as the central concept a nd operational approach of national and regional policies on ageing, the subprogramme expanded the use of the Active Ageing Index as a monitoring tool and a framework for integrated policymaking by incorporating additional non -European Union countries and time periods as well as supporting and guiding its development at the subnational and local levels.
