Demographic Changes
Demographic changes refer to shifts in the characteristics of a population over time, such as age, birth rates, death rates, migration, and ethnicity. These changes can influence society by affecting workforce sizes, healthcare needs, and economic growth. For example, an aging population may lead to increased demand for healthcare and social services, while higher birth rates can expand the young population. Understanding demographic trends helps governments and organizations plan for future demands, ensuring resources and policies are aligned with the evolving needs of the population.
