Life expectancy in Switzerland is one of the highest in the world – and 54% of the Swiss population is older than 40 years. As a consequence of this demographic shift, the younger generation risks living in a world decided by the older generation. How can we bridge the expectations of different generations to create a shared vision for the future?
Dimensions to be addressed:
- New models of intergenerational exchange
- Encouraging the participation of youth in democratic processes
- Leveraging technologies and digital platforms across generations
