A Panorama of Swiss Society 2024

The Panorama of Swiss Society series—published by the Federal Statistical Office (FSO), the Universities of Neuchâtel and Fribourg and the Swiss Academy of Humanities and Social Sciences—is the joint initiative of official statistics and social science research in the universities. The aim of the series is to make important findings on key socio-political topics and fundamental trends in Swiss society accessible for public interest. The current issue is dedicated to the ageing of society. Demographic change and an ageing society are megatrends. Ageing refers both to individual development that continues well into old age and to the dynamics of institutions and structures as well as societal developments, attitudes and challenges. Conventional perceptions of old age no longer apply. This can be seen, for example, in novel ageing concepts in science and politics. The aim of this Panorama is to explore selected topics relating to ageing in greater depth. The publication thus paints a differentiated, multi-layered picture of various aspects and dimensions of ageing in Switzerland.
