DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES · PUBLIC INITIATIVES · ANALYTICAL SYSTEMS
The Institute’s projects connect research data, work with young people, public dialogue and long-term planning. Each initiative opens a different part of the same question: what kind of demographic future does Slovenia want to build?
Each project addresses a different aspect of demographic future: from work with young people and value-based questions to spatial projections and responsible public connection.
The projects are independent, yet connected by one common goal: to translate data and understanding into useful development initiatives for Slovenia and the wider European space.
Demographic future is not only a question of statistics. It is a question of education, relationships, space, municipalities and responsibility towards generations to come.

Open projectPublic initiative
How many are we? How many will we be? An initiative for connection and responsible demographic future.
Open projectThe projects create space for dialogue with young people about decisions, values and life conditions that shape the country’s future demographic profile.
The analytical approach connects projections, local data and long-term planning, making demography useful for municipalities and institutions.
The initiatives are not designed as fear-based campaigns, but as a calm, research-oriented and connective framework for responsible public dialogue.
A project becomes real when data meet people, municipalities and decisions.
