National Rights Engine (in cooperation with the Senior Citizens Division in the Ministry
for Social Equality, the National Insurance Institute, the Ministry of Labor, Social Affairs and Social
Services, Health Ministry, Justice Ministry, Commission for Equal Rights of Persons with Disabilities,
the Government ICT Authority, and additional government agencies)
The Bureau is advancing a project to establish a national rights engine that will provide access to
information about rights and benefits granted to citizens. The project will initially focus on the
population of senior citizens, based on the understanding that this population group has difficulty
inquiring about and realizing its rights. The Rights Engine will include a website where, after filling out
a basic questionnaire, senior citizens, their family and the professionals assisting them will be able to
receive customized information about the rights to which the senior citizen may be entitled and to
realize these rights. The engine will consolidate information about rights from all
government offices granting rights and benefits to citizens. |
