Proyecciones demográficas para Argentina como base para el diseño de la política migratoria

Abstract

The world is aging as the population has fewer children and lives longer. This situation poses numerous challenges in several countries, not only to maintain stable population levels but also the standards of economic growth. In this context, migrations are presented as a possible solution by collaborating in maintaining welfare systems and vegetative balances of the increasingly aging countries. Argentina is no stranger to this reality. Projections show that the country has started to move towards this demographic scenario and that it will reach the end of the century seeing its population reduced. This article analyzes the country’s migration policies and some concrete measures that could strengthen the opportunities that migration presents in this demographic horizon.
