The Future of Families to 2030

Executive summary
The aim of the “Families to 2030” project was to identify and examine trends in household and family structures over the next 20 years, and to explore the implications of those trends for key policy areas. The project was, by its very nature, experimental, since at the time very little international work had been conducted on the theme of the future of families. This was an opportunity to apply foresight tools to a new, relatively unexplored subject area.
