Good practices to address demographic decline

Spatial Foresight senior consultant Erik Gløersen helps DG REGIO compile good practices mobilising the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) to address social and economic challenges in areas confronted to demographic decline. The objective is to provide inputs for the design and implementation of programmes in the 2021-2027 programming period. Key questions addressed are: what are the causes and implications of population decline prevail in different European Member States and regions? What policy objectives are pursued in relation to associated social and economic challenges? How would the ERDF contribute to their achievement? How can population decline best be factored in when pursuing ERDF policy objectives?
