[2]National Health Survey, 1999. For this present study we haven’t been able to have the recent 2005/2006 Survey.

  5. Main goals and targets Data and Methodology Ageing, Education and Health Conclusions Limitations and Obstacles • Our conclusions where limited by the impossibility of crosschecking data on Health and Education. SO this paper must be considered as an initial essay to use different possible methodologies, according to availability on Portuguese information systems on health status and demographic dynamics.

  6. Main goals and targets Data and Methodology Ageing, Education and Health Conclusions Global Ageing Society SCENE Countries by percentage of population aged 65+, 2009 Japan 23 Italy 20 Germany 20 Greece 19 18 Sweeden Portugal 17 World Population Data Sheet 2009- PRB

  7. Main goals and targets Data and Methodology Ageing, Education and Health Conclusions Sticky notes - Set Main demographic topics in Portugal Placeholder for your own sub headline Late and slow Demographic Transition process[1]. [1]Henriques e Rodrigues, in Rodrigues et al., 2009 Major changes have occurred during the last hundred years. These can be explained by the industrialization process, urban growth and internal migrations. Changes in mortality started after 1890. But mortality and morbidity paterns just changed in 2nd half XXth century. 1900 onwards makes it clear that Portugal’s total growth rates depended on the intensity of migration fluxes (especially emigration).[1] After 1970 internal migration levels increased, reinforcing a new pattern fertility and mortality ratios.[2] [1] Baganha, 1998 [2]Nazareth, 1988 Mortality and fertility behaviours have changed. In what concerns births, in yearly 20th women had almost 5 children and in the 21st century women hardly have one!

  8. Main goals and targets Data and Methodology Ageing, Education and Health Conclusions Sticky notes - Set Main demographic topics in Portugal General demographic trends on past decade are threatening Portuguese capability to sustain population growth above zero Natural annual growth, in 2007, was negative for the first time, since Pneumonia flu, in 1918. This means that in this particular year there were more deaths than births (103,512 deaths and 102,492 newborn). In 2008, there were more 314 births than deaths! Clearly not enough when net migration is decreasing over past decade.

  9. Main goals and targets Data and Methodology Ageing, Education and Health Conclusions Portugal in an ageing process: past reality and future trends Portuguese population and future trends. 1900-2021.

  10. Main goals and targets Data and Methodology Ageing, Education and Health Conclusions Portugal in an ageing process: past reality and future trends Authors’ and INE’s Scenarios for Portuguese population. Portugal 2001– 2021.

  11. Between 1900 and 2001 we won longevity and pop 65+ Between 1900 and 2001 we won longevity and pop 65+ Between 1900 2001 lost youth Between 1900 2001 lost youth Main goals and targets Data and Methodology Ageing, Education and Health Conclusions Portugal in an ageing process: past reality and future trends 1900 Apart from any migration scenario, forecasts confirm a double ageing process, with life expectancies greater than 76 years for men and 83 for women by 2021. By then, the younger generations will represent no more than 14 per cent, whilst old people will exceed 21 per cent. For every 10 youngsters there will be 15 people aged 65 years or more. 2021

  12. Main goals and targets Data and Methodology Ageing, Education and Health Conclusions Ageing, socio-economic conditions and health The link between education levels and health status is relevant (1) particularly in a country where the educational level attained by older population is still very low BUT:this situation will probably undergo major changes in the near future, due to a successful improvement in educational levels for adult and elderly people. [1]Joung et al. take another point of view and argued that future changes in the composition of the population by educational level will also affect the health of the population and this might counterbalance some of the effects of ageing

  13. Main goals and targets Data and Methodology Ageing, Education and Health Conclusions Ageing, socio-economic conditions and health Portuguese Educational level by Age Structure. 2001. More than 80%

  14. Main goals and targets Data and Methodology Ageing, Education and Health Conclusions Ageing, socio-economic conditions and health Level of Education by Sex (60- 69 years) in 2001 and 2021 Educational levels by Sex (70 or more years) in 2001 and 2021

  15. Portugal in 2021 will have 21% 65+ and less than 14% young Portugal educational level attained by older population is still very low but will improve in adults and future elderly. Analyze to what extent future changes in demographic structures by age, sex and educational level will affect the average health status of the Portuguese population. So, the possible negative impact of death concentration on advanced ages, associated to the rise of incapacitating and chronic diseases, can be counterbalanced by the rise in educational levels. Our estimation results suggest that in Portugal, as in other European countries, there is a significant relationship between health status and educational level.
