World Demographic and Ageing Forum www.wdaforum.org/home/

The WDA Forum was founded in St. Gallen in 2002 and since then has acted as a platform and think tank for the global coordination of activities and initiatives resulting from demographic challenges. Demographic change will develop an unprecedented dynamic in the 21st century. Life expectancy, birth rates and migration are parameters which should not be underestimated, and which shape the social, economic, ecological and political developments of nations and continents.
