These demographic changes will affect every community, family and person. They demand that we rethink how individuals live, work, plan and learn throughout their lifetimes, and that we re-invent how societies manage themselves. 我们这个时代最伟大的社会、经济和政治转变之一是人口快速老龄化，世界 各地人类寿命稳步增加。人口结构的这些变化将影响每个社区、每个家庭和每个 人，迫使我们重新思考每个人一生应该如何生活、工作、规划和学习，迫使我们 改造社会自我管理模式。 As we embark on shaping the post-2015 United Nations development agenda, we must envision a new paradigm that aligns demographic ageing with economic and social growth and protects the human rights of older persons.
