Nordic Aging Society (NAS)
Network that brings together Nordic leaders in the field of aging research
Societies, including the Nordic countries, are experiencing an explosion in the proportion of old individuals. Indeed, the proportion of individuals aged more than 65 has increased from around 10% in 1965 to 20% in 2019 and this increase is likely to continue in the future. With old-age comes increased chronic morbidities which requires long-term and costly care. These demographic changes pose a serious socioeconomic challenge for our region and new interventions and solutions will become critically needed to allow us to maintain our high standard of living. This network brings together Nordic leaders in the field of aging research with the goal of finding solutions to these challenges allowing us a sustainable and long-term future of healthy aging in the Nordic countries.
