Demographic drivers of social infrastructure

Ageing of population requires certain dynamics in development of age friendly environment. In the next 45 year, 30% of the built environment will need to be modified for the use of people with declining functional capacities. These dynamics will presure the public finances for investment in hospitals, schools and other public buildings. In this paper we analyse The Ageing Report 2015, giving projections of needed structure of social infrastructure in some European countries. The paper presents the differences between northern and southern countries as well as the differences between east and west. The list of recommendations how to develop and managing private-public partnerships and the needed financial instruments will be presented in this paper with the final goal to achieve suitable social infrastructure in the framework of limited public financial sources.
