The solidarity concept
![Page 27: Ageing in Belgium](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062323/568162d9550346895dd35eab/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Definition of Solidarity
• A commitment• Mutual Responsibility• A feeling in each of us
![Page 28: Ageing in Belgium](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062323/568162d9550346895dd35eab/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Consequences:
• Solidarity = A Moral Duty• Solidarity = A process to aim ethics and justice values.
![Page 29: Ageing in Belgium](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062323/568162d9550346895dd35eab/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Three essential criteria:
• What about a Human commitment?• Is the solution in favor of the weakest people? Of the persons
exclude?• Could the solution allow a better « live together » between
different generations in society?
• If the solution fills the three criteria so the Solidarity Concept is guaranteed.
