Estonia 2035

The Estonia 2035 Strategy is a national long-term development plan that aims to increase the vitality of the Estonian nation, language, and culture, and to develop a democratic and secure state. The strategy is based on five strategic goals: 1) People 2) Society 3) Economy 4) Living environment, and 5) Governance. The strategy is implemented through sectoral development plans and Programme, as well as through the coordination of the European Semester, which serves as a basis for the planning of the European Union funds. One of the challenges that the strategy addresses is improving the accessibility and long-term care for older persons and people with disabilities. The strategy proposes some interventions to address this challenge, such as developing a comprehensive and integrated long-term care system, increasing the role and support of local governments and communities, and enhancing the prevention, early detection, and treatment of chronic diseases and mental health problems, among others. The strategy also defines some indicators and targets to measure the progress and impact of these interventions. The strategy is reviewed and updated every four years, based on the feedback and evaluation of the results. The strategy has a time horizon of 15 years, from 2020 to 2035.
