DEMOGRAPHIC CHANGE AND ECONOMIC GROWTH

Abstract

Demographic change exerts a deep influence on economic growth via adjustments in population structure, labor force participation, and the formation of human capital. This paper addresses the stages of demographic transition and their economic implications, placing particular focus on the demographic dividend, the challenges of aging population, and the role of migration. In addition, it addresses the importance of investments in human capital and policy responses to demographic change. Through analyzing global trends and case studies, this research brings forward how countries can take advantage of demographic shifts for long-term economic success.
