A member of our research team (Michala Lustigova) had actively participated at the Czech Demographic Society Conference which took place in Prague by the end of May. Her presentation was devoted to Disability and self-sufficiency among the elderly. The analysis based on the 5th wave of SHARE data showed that the functional health among the Czech male population was comparable to the European average, while among the Czech elderly females one of the worst health condition and the highest prevalence of disability in Europe was found.
