New program on Demographic Change, Equality and Wellbeing started
In January 2018, JPI MYBL started a new program called ‘Demographic Change, Equality and Wellbeing - A Search for Evidence’. The aim is to better understand what can be done, in the context of demographic change, to promote a society in which the distribution of resources and opportunities is more equal and which promotes the wellbeing of all its people. This program is expected to produce evidence on the relationship between demographic change, equality and wellbeing.
In the first stage, experts will be commissioned to produce papers on nine topics. In the second stage, an event (workshop or conference) will be organised in which all the topics will be discussed together with the GA. The results will not only be disseminated to a wider community of stakeholders, policymakers and researchers, but also used to foster alignment between the work of the JPI, other agencies and programs and to plan the future work of the JPI and its members.
More information will follow at a later stage.
