Towards Population Ageing in Africa

Completed

The world is ageing, and Africa is not the exception. The population ageing is a blessing as people are living longer, but also there are various challenges: double burden of diseases with persisting infectious diseases as well as increasing non-communicable diseases will inevitably raise the demand of health and long-term care.
