Newsletter Culturaging

We already know how aging affects pension systems and the economies as a whole. What we have not studies yet is how aging affects societies. Are aging societies more fair towards all its member, young and old? How do aging societies decide about how to spend public money? Are aging societies more or less willing to accept immigrants in order to sustain the public finances? How are aging societies voting? Do they go more for the extremes as the old and the young have different needs? Or they target for consensus? Are aging societies more willing to encourage women to participate more in the labor market? And if so, does this imply a change in how people view women? These are some of the question our research project aims to address. Our aim is to reflect over these research questions, to make assumptions as to potential answers and to come up with quantifiable answers to each of them. Having a clear answer is essential as it will allow policy makers to expand their choice of policies beyond the field of the economy to society as a whole and start considering social actions targeting specific groups such as women or immigrants.
 

Culturaging, a research initiative backed by the Luxembourg National Research Fund, is dedicated to advancing knowledge in the intersection of aging and culture. The program not only conducts cutting-edge research but also provides a platform for sharing research results, data, publications, and hosting collaborative workshops.
