13th GISPRI
Symposium
Japan's Key Options in Aging Society with Declining Birthrate
-Development and more advanced utilization of human resources-
Tokyo, March 25, 2003, 10:00 to 17:30
|
On March 25, 2003, the 13th GISPRI Symposium "Japan's Key Options
in Aging Society with Declining Birthrate-Development and more advanced
utilization of human resources-" will be held under the auspices of
Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and the Finnish Institute
in Japan.
From early 21st Century, Japan is to face the very arrival of an aging
society with declining birthrate. It is clear that, under the current
socio-economic system, Japan will not be able to effectively address
various issues anticipated in such a society, including the decrease
of younger working population, slower economic growth rate, and increased
burden of working generation for social welfare costs.
This symposium is to consider the "human resource development and
employment" as a key in addressing the aging society with declining
birthrate, and to provide lectures and discussion on the review of
current system that seems to direct toward declining birthrate society,
the development of a system to allow various forms of employment,
and the desirable reforms of education system.
It is our pleasure to inform you of this symposium, as it is open
for anyone with an interest in the subject.
