虽然人口老龄化被视为全世界的优先事项,但尼泊尔在这一领域的研究仍处于起步阶段。该国老年人口的绝对人数和占总人口的比例都在增加;然而,传统的家庭规范和赡养老年人的价值观正在削弱。本文的目的是通过二次人口普查和调查数据,简要介绍尼泊尔人口老龄化的现状,以便进一步研究和探讨。
Although population aging is regarded as a worldwide priority, research in this field is in its infancy in Nepal. The older population of that country is increasing both in terms of absolute numbers and as a proportion of the total population; however, traditional family norms and values of supporting the elderly are eroding. The objective of this paper is to provide a brief introduction to population aging as it exists in Nepal through secondary census and survey data for the purpose of further research and inquiry.
