Europe is older, but Latin America is aging faster
New demographic analysis highlights that while Europe remains the world's oldest region by median age, Latin America's population is aging at a much faster pace. The finding draws attention to how quickly fertility declines and rising life expectancy are transforming societies that were until recently considered young, raising questions about pension systems and health care across the region.
Why now: Population aging is accelerating in Latin America, prompting debate about the region's readiness for the demographic shift.
