On the farm, children are an asset as workers or caregivers but in the city, they become a liability or “another mouth to feed.” Darrell points out that educated women demand ownership of their bodies, then use that autonomy to have fewer kids.
This results in greater access to education for women. Urbanization // The largest migration in our time is people leaving life on the farm to move into the city.As life expectancy increases, humans are getting better at keeping people alive, but worse at actually making new people. The majority of countries are below this number (some as low as 1.4). One for herself, one for her partner & a little extra for those who can’t and to offset childhood mortality. Fertility // In order to replace its population, a country’s fertility rate needs to be 2.1 kids per woman.In his new presentation Darrell explains the three root causes of our soon to be decreasing population: What’s behind this impending population contraction & how should organizations prepare themselves for this demographic shift? His new talk helps audiences adjust their strategy: Brand New Global Population Presentation Īccording to Darrell’s research, we’re looking at a population bust around 2050, at which time earth’s population will begin declining – and quickly.
Their global network spans 89 countries and has fieldwork capabilities in almost every country in the world.ĭarrell explores global population decline in his brand new book (co-authored by John Ibbitson) & keynote presentation Empty Planet: The Shock of Global Population Decline. How will social security & healthcare cope with the added stress?Īs the CEO of the world’s leading social and opinion research firm, Darrell Bricker has the data to help organizations future-proof their strategy in the face of a shrinking population. At IPSOS Public Affairs, he leads an international research team of experts designing and managing complex multi-country social research studies using a full range of quantitative and qualitative approaches.With fewer workers available, how do organizations address staffing shortages?.How can governments prop up an aging population with fewer young people?.What will shifting demographics mean for the target consumers of the future?.
This will cause massive disruptions for businesses, the economy & society as a whole, leading us to wonder: Thankfully new data shows a population boom isn’t on the horizon anytime soon… Instead, there’s a different threat facing organizations around the globe: GLOBAL POPULATION IS ABOUT TO HAVE A STEEP DECLINE
The earth’s natural resources have wiped out, plunging the earth into a Mad Max like desert or resulting in “excess” people being sent into space in search of another planet to call home. We’ve all seen the movies – a dystopian future where humanity’s population has grown out of control.
