    "9 Months Per Year" | Certain Futures Episode 1

    What happens when a European demographic research project asks a Berlin podcaster (Dan from the RS team) to explore their findings? We find out in Episode one of Certain Futures: "Nine Months Per Year" Host Daniel Stern begins his journey into demography and takes a peek at what ageing might mean for himself, and for Europe. We find out the origins of demography and look at how the science has evolved. We also see how confronting ageing isn't just policy and percentages - it is also very personal. This limited-series podcast is produced by Radio Spaetkauf in collaboration with the FutuRes Project. The FutuRes Project brings demographers and economists together with policymakers to advance what we know and how we plan for Europe’s ageing society.
