A workshop titled “Active Aging – Key to Addressing Mental and Physical Health” was held for older women in Bitola, in collaboration with the Union of Pensioners-Bitola, as part of the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy’s “Strong and Brave” campaign that focuses on the well-being, mental health, and economic empowerment of women. Before the workshop, Minister of Labour and Social Policy Jovanka Trencheska and Minister of Culture Bisera Kostadinovska Stojchevska greeted the attendees and emphasized that the government’s measures aim to improve the quality of life for all citizens. The workshop began with Professor Sofija Arnaudova discussing happiness and what makes each person happy, providing seniors with the opportunity to share their personal perspectives and life experiences. Vesna Rok, a psychologist at the Mental Health Institute for Children and Youth, spoke about hope and how support can be provided to people in need. The importance of mental health to an individual’s well-being and quality of life was stressed throughout the workshop, as well as the key role of active aging in maintaining good mental and physical health in older age. The attendees stressed that the length of time they could use their pension was more important than the amount, sending a message to all female pensioners in the country.
