At a time when the Trump-Vance Administration is chaotically slashing critical foreign assistance programs that have for decades served to maintain global stability and keep Americans safe, it’s critical that we understand the implications of this demographic shift and thoughtfully incorporate the needs of aging communities in our foreign policy. As we work to restore U.S. foreign assistance programs and rebuild our alliances, this report underscores the need to develop a more comprehensive strategy to address global aging.” The share of the global population over 60 will double by 2050, and the total number of people over 80 will triple in that same time period. ### | 1 | 2026-09-22T09:42:49Z | 2026-09-22T09:44:35Z |
