Presentation with John Seager
The Good Crisis: How Population Stabilization Can Foster a Healthy U.S. Economy
It’s been 10 years since our co-publication, The Good Crisis: How Population Stabilization Can Foster a Healthy U.S. Economy. A decade later, we’re still making the same argument: lower fertility rates are good for the health and well-being of people and the planet.
Join Population Connection President and CEO, John Seager, as he unpacks how the demographic changes now underway represent an extraordinary opportunity for us to focus on creating a greater, rather than larger, society. Lower fertility rates can help solve some of our most intractable problems, avert some of the worst climate catastrophes, and create opportunities for those who are often left out of our economy.
During the event, John will unpack the challenge of The Good Crisis—keeping our aging population healthy, productive, and prepared for today’s technologically-focused jobs. At the same time, today’s youth must be prepared for productive futures through education, skills training, and delayed parenthood enabled by improved family planning services.
