SUMMARY:Demographic Trilemma: Which Path Will Lithuania Choose?
DESCRIPTION:On Friday 6 December\, ECR MEP Aurelijus Veryga will host an international conference on demographic issues titled “Demographic Trilemma: Which Path Will Lithuania Choose?” in Vilnius\, Lithuania. \nThe conference will focus on Lithuania’s demographic challenges\, including the decline in large families\, delayed childbirth\, increased pressure on the social security system\, the impact of immigration on the economy\, and the challenges to national security. \n“The ECR Group has long advocated for addressing demographic issues. I am proud to work alongside colleagues who share this commitment and are determined to find solutions. The demographic crisis not only threatens Lithuania’s economy\, competitiveness\, and social security systems\, but it also affects our national identity and security. We must value motherhood and family-building as fundamental to state-building\, supporting families in their decisions to bring new members into society\,” said Mr VERYGA  \nPaolo Inselvini\, ECR member\, Witold d’Humilly de Chevilly\, Executive Director of the New Direction European political Foundation\, Inga Ruginienė\, Member of the Seimas of the Republic of Lithuania and Minister-designate for Social Security and Labour\, along with other distinguished guests\, will formally welcome the participants. \nThe conference will bring together distinguished speakers\, including: \n• Dr. Aurelijus Veryga\, Member of the European Parliament \n• Dr. Dovilė Galdauskaitė\, Senior Specialist\, Population Statistics Division\, State Data Agency of Lithuania \n• Daiva Macijauskė\, Deputy Director\, Business Environment and Economy Department\, Confederation of Lithuanian Industrialists \n• Dr. Arvydas Nekrošius\, Professor\, Vilnius University \n• Boguslavas Gruževskis\, Interim Chair\, National Family Council \n• Dr. Lijana Gvaldaitė\, Associate Professor\, Vilnius University \n• Mark Daniel Regnerus\, Professor\, University of Texas at Austin \n• Assoc.
