过去三十年来，东亚地区收获了人口红利。大量且不断增长的劳动力对上世纪六十至九十年代人均收入增长的贡献接近三分之一，使得该地区成为全球增长引擎。 当前，东亚地区正面临另一个人口趋势构成的挑战：人口快速老龄化。新发布的一份世界银行报告发现，东亚和太平洋地区人口老龄化速度和规模均位于全球各地区首位。 目前，超过2.11亿65岁及以上人口居住在东亚和太平洋地区，占全球该年龄组别总人口36%。到2040年，东亚地区老龄人口将增长一倍以上，达到4.79亿；韩国、中国、泰国等国适龄就业人口将萎缩10%-15%。 纵观该地区，随着适龄就业人口减少和老龄化加速，政策制定者正关注人口老龄化对经济增长的潜在影响以及医疗卫生、养老金和长期养老体系对公共支出日益增加的需求。 随着该地区人口快速老龄化，政府部门、用人单位以及各家庭应如何确保辛勤工作的人们在进入老龄阶段后过上健康且有产出的生活？东亚和太平洋地区各社会应如何促进生产性老龄化并且提升包容性？ Source link
