Abstract
The demographic crisis and the ageing process are changing the population structure of Milan. These phenomena put under pressure the local welfare system, the functioning of the labor market, the solidarity between generations within and outside the family. The chapter investigates the urgent challenges that Milan should face: activation of mature peoples, promotion of youth employment, long term care for frail elderly people, supporting families and individuals over the life course. Then the chapter discusses the opportunitis that lie ahead the demographic transition if the relationships among generations are redefined in terms of equity and interdependence.
