Summary/Abstract: Comprehensive research on active ageing necessitates access to reliable and upto- date statistical information. This report explores the potential of utilizing big data to examine various dimensions of the multidimensional concept of active ageing. It considers diverse sources of big data relevant to the study of this phenomenon and places particular emphasis on the specific challenges associated with its application in this context. The primary concern relates to limited access to digital technologies and disparities in digital literacy among older adults, which pose a significant risk of excluding specific subpopulations from statistical analyses based on big data. These challenges highlight the need for the development of new technologies and methodologies, ethical frameworks, and interdisciplinary collaboration, as well as effective strategies for their implementation in the study of active ageing.
