"Certain Futures" in Milan: the realities of ageing

It is time for our podcast to confront the reality of ageing as a megatrend. For this, Daniel Stern travels to Italy - a country where the public is acutely aware of demographic change, and where the topic is a broad discussion. At Bocconi University in Milan, the FutuRes experts explain the implications of demographic change - if left unchecked. Outside of the university, the Milanese tell Daniel what they believe their own future might look like.

Feel free to share this link! We are looking forward to welcoming new listeners to the world of demography.

Demographic change connects directly to our private lives – and yet, unless you are a demography expert, it seldomly comes up in everyday conversation. FutuRes wants to help change that. This is why we asked Berlin-based podcaster Daniel Stern to help us bring the discussion into the ears of our audience. 

This podcast is produced by Radio Spaetkauf in collaboration with the FutuRes Project.

Guests in this episode:

Researchers at Bocconi University: Arnstein Aassve,  Letizia Mencarini,  Aleksandra Torbica
