"The Berlin Demography Forum will fill a gap in the current discussion on this subject. Only through an interdisciplinary approach can we find ways to counter demographic changes in the long term," says Kristina Schröder, German Minster for Family, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth.
Besides Kristina Schröder, Michael Diekmann, CEO and Chairman of Allianz SE, and Hans-Peter Friedrich, German Minister of Interior Affairs, will hold a keynote speech at the forum. Additional panel discussions are planned on topics like "International Demographics and Family Policies", "Decision-points for a Family: Work, Time, Infrastructure, Integration", and "Economy, Work and Family".
