Received Date: Sep 01, 2024 / Published Date: Sep 29, 2024
Abstract
As the global population ages at an unprecedented rate, the challenges and opportunities associated with an aging demographic have become central concerns for policymakers, healthcare providers, and communities alike. By 2050, it is estimated that nearly 2.1 billion people worldwide will be aged 60 or over, up from 1 billion in 2020. This demographic shift brings with it both significant challenges and unique opportunities that require strategic planning and innovative solutions to ensure the well-being of older adults.The aging population is characterized by a growing proportion of elderly individuals within a community or country. This shift is driven by increased life expectancy and declining birth rates. Advances in healthcare, improved living conditions, and better nutrition have contributed to longer lifespans. However, this demographic transition also brings challenges related to health care, social support, and economic sustainability.
