Reassessing Ageing from a Population Perspective (Re-Ageing)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 mars 2018,

Life expectancies in the EU have increased significantly over the past decades and are expected to continue increasing. Age-specific health statuses have also generally been improving. In contrast to these profound changes, the concepts that demographers have used to analyze ageing on a population level have remained largely static. The substantial changes in life expectancy and health status have ...

Social challenges of trans-Mediterranean renewable power cooperation (DESERTECTION)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2017,

Developed countries must completely decarbonize their power systems by mid-century if the world is to avoid dangerous climate change, and developing countries will have to follow soon thereafter. This will almost certainly include heavy reliance on renewable energy sources, and could include complete reliance. In the context of such a transition, both sound technical and economic analysis and curr ...
