People in the Western world are now living longer and leading healthier lifestyles than ever before. And, because of falling birth rates and lengthening life expectancy, populations are ageing. A range of indicators ranging from life expectancy, infant mortality and maternal mortality confirm this trend. In Western Europe it is estimated that in another 5 years, i.e. by 2020, there will be 40% more people aged 75 and above than in 1990.
