Projects

This section presents selected projects of the Institute for Demographic Future. The projects are conceived as independent thematic and development initiatives focused on understanding demographic challenges, working with young people, and responsibly planning Slovenia’s future over the long term.

Key Initiatives of the Institute

Each project addresses a different dimension of demographic future: from work with young people and questions of values to spatial projections and institutional planning. The projects are presented separately and retain their own thematic independence, while at the same time forming part of the Institute’s shared strategic direction.

Youth Initiative

Demographic Incubator for Young People

A programme of awareness-building and active reflection on the future of society. The project is designed as an experiential process that encourages young people to reflect on patterns, choices and the long-term social consequences of present-day beliefs.

Particular emphasis is placed on cooperation with schools, understanding the myths that shape decision-making, and developing a different perspective among younger generations.

Open project
Social Initiative

Love Is Your Power

The project creates space for sincere reflection on relationships, identity and personal fidelity to oneself. It is presented as a public initiative that addresses young people and the wider public through an authentic, human and values-based message.

Its focus is not on trends, but on the reality of the individual who, in the modern world, seeks maturity, sincerity and a deeper meaning in relationships.

Analytical Project

Slovenia’s Demographic Time Machine

The project is focused on demographic projections, spatial planning and long-term decision-making. It represents the development of an analytical system that provides deeper insight into future population changes across towns, municipalities and regions.

Its purpose is to connect demographic data, public needs and institutional planning within a single framework for more responsible governance of the future.

Social Initiative

#PreštejmoSe

The project introduces a new way of recognising one another, connecting people and encouraging public reflection on demographic future. It is conceived as an independent initiative that brings together symbolism, social signalling and broader public discussion.

At the core of the project is a simple, visible sign of commitment to the idea of a responsible future, together with an invitation to cooperation, connection and awareness-building within the community.
