Ageing: the demographic challenge

Date: 26 August, 2004
Time: 10:00-11:00
Room: Folkets Hus, room number 307

Why are there fewer babies in Europe today? With increasing numbers of old people spending more time in retirement, how can society foot the bill? Will pensioners will have to return to compete in the labour market? Can immigration solve the problem? Will Europe fall behind the global competition?

Frans Willekens, Interdisciplinary Demographic Institute, Netherlands

Dr. James Vaupel, Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research, Rostock, Germany. Ageing and longevity- How old are we likely to get and how many of us will get very old?
