Livestream—Baker Briefing: Population Decline & the New Economics of Cities

The world is facing a quiet but transformative challenge: depopulation. As birth rates decline, populations age, and migration patterns shift, the impacts will be felt across almost every aspect of human existence, from housing markets and tax bases to workforce stability, public safety, infrastructure planning, geopolitics, education, and long-term economic competitiveness.

Join us virtually for a live recording of the Baker Institute’s flagship podcast, “Baker Briefing,” to explore depopulation and its implications. Ambassador David M. Satterfield will be joined by Fellow Bill King from the Center for Tax and Budget Policy to examine how demographic trends may reshape policymaking and what leaders can do now to plan responsibly for the future.
