La situation démographique dans l’UE 27 a une influence considérable sur un certain nombre de domaines, allant du marché du travail aux systèmes de soins de santé et de retraite, en passant par l’éducation. Les évolutions récentes de la situation renforcent les tendances démographiques déjà existantes: un vieillissement marqué de la population en raison des taux de fécondité moins élevés et de l’espérance de vie croissante, associé à une décroissance de la population en âge de travailler.

L’Afrique est le continent le plus jeune au monde. Au regard de la rapidité de sa croissance démographique, l’Afrique devrait compenser une grande partie du déclin de la population dans d’autres parties du monde au cours des prochaines décennies. Par conséquent, à l’horizon 2050, une personne en âge de travailler sur quatre sur la planète pourrait être africaine. Aujourd’hui, plus de 60 % des Africains ont moins de 25 ans. Ce dynamisme démographique pose des défis majeurs et ouvre des possibilités ...
