European Day of Demography – Generationenfragen: Über Vergangenheit und Zukunft der Demografie

Am 4. Februar begehen wir jedes Jahr den Europäischen Tag der Demografie. Dieses Datum ist auch der Jahrestag der „Natural and Political Observations … Made Upon the Bills of Mortality“ von 1662. Mit dieser bahnbrechenden Studie wurde John Graunt, ein Londoner Textilhändler und Mitglied der Royal Society, zum Begründer der Demografie und Epidemiologie. Was macht dieses Datum so bedeutsam? Und welche Themen werden uns in den kommenden Jahren besonders beschäftigen? Neben Aspekten der alternden Gesellschaft und des Fachkräftemangels wollen wir dabei insbesondere einen Blick auf die Situation junger Menschen und die Frage der Generationengerechtigkeit werfen. Diskutieren Sie mit!
