Se film från post-2015 seminarium här!
I seminariet “The youth bulge in a graying world – a demographic challenge?” diskuteras hur vi kan skapa en hållbar utvecklingsagenda som tar hänsyn till den ökande andelen unga och gamla i världen.
Idag är hälften av världens befolkning under 25 år, samtidigt som 11 procent är 60 år eller äldre. Andelen unga och gamla kommer dessutom öka ytterligare till 2030, när världens befolkning uppskattas nå åtta miljarder.
Hur kan vi förberda för denna demografiska utmaning? Hur kan tillgång till utbildning, arbete och hälsovård säkras för unga och gamla?
