Trends "future directions" Healthcare introduction Filetype:pdf

  • GLOBAL TRENDS 2030: ALTERNATIVE WORLDS, Page 1-50




First important thing I learned is about future prediction on individual empowerment. During the next 15-20 years, individual empowerment will jump substantially. It is expected that in next 2 decade, there will be rapid poverty reduction and high growth of middle class, increase d literacy and drastic improvement in health care.  These factors will change the social and economic fabric at the global level and empower the individual. 

Second thing I learned about the diffusion of global power in next 2 decades. As per the prediction, Asia will surpass the North America and Europe in terms of GDP, military and technology spending, population size and consumption power. China will become largest economy surpassing US economy between 2025 and 2030. Economies of Japan, Russia and Europe are expected to decline. The future trends shows the world will be divide over multipolar power rather than concentrated around superpower.

Finally the third useful thing I learned is about the changing demographic pattern and its impact in the next 2 decades. By 2030, world population will cross over 8.3 billion people. One of the major will be aging population. West countries will have higher aging population compare to developing countries like India and China. Aging countries have to fight to maintain their economic power and will be dependent on skilled and unskilled labor migrants.
