The State of World Population 1998
More young people than ever are entering their childbearing and working
years. At the same time, the number and proportion of people over age
65 are increasing at an unprecedented rate. Our future will be shaped
by how well families and societies meet the needs of these growing "new
generations": education and health including reproductive
health for the young, and social, medical and financial support
for the elderly.
