This side event, focused on Demographic Resilience, explores the growing diversity in global demographic trends, with some countries experiencing rapid population growth while others face stagnation or decline, each bringing distinct policy challenges.
The event pursues three main objectives: (1) to introduce demographic resilience and its importance for achieving sustainable development; (2) to showcase country examples of actions taken at different stages of the demographic transition; and (3) to identify key global principles for building demographic resilience while safeguarding individual rights and choices. By bringing together diverse country experiences, the event underscores the importance of the systematic use of population data for strategic planning, adapting systems, and investing in human capital across the life course to build resilient and inclusive societies.
