Let's talk matters population ageing
Population ageing is an increasing median age in a population due to rising life expectancy and declining fertility rates. Population ageing is poised to become one of the most significant social transformations of the twenty-first century, with implications for nearly all sectors of society, including labour and financial markets, the demand for goods and services; such as housing, transportation and social protection, as well as family structures and intergenerational ties.
