SpanishA global study on creating inclusive environments for ageing populations Shifting demographics
By The Economist Intelligence Unit

The SHIFT Index benchmarks against a set of national-level leading practices in creating an enabling environment supportive of longevity and healthy ageing for societies in 19 countries comprising the Group of Twenty (G20)2 .
