Call For Revolutionary Thinking
We live in an ageing world. While this has been recognized for some time in developed countries, it is only recently that this phenomenon has been fully acknowledged. Global communication is “shrinking” the world, and global ageing is “maturing” it. The increasing presence of older persons in the world is making people of all ages more aware that we live in a diverse and multi-generational society. It is no longer possible to ignore ageing, regardless of whether one views it positively or negatively.
Demographers note that if current trends in ageing continue as predicted, a demographic revolution, wherein the proportions of the young and the old will undergo a historic crossover, will be felt in just three generations. This portrait of change in the world’s population parallels the magnitude of the industrial revolution traditionally considered the most significant social and economic breakthrough in the history of humankind since the Neolithic period. It marked the beginning of a sustained movement towards modern economic growth in much the same way that globalization is today marking an unprecedented and sustained movement toward a “global culture”. The demographic revolution, it is envisaged, will be at least as powerful.
While the future effects are not known, a likely scenario is one where both the challenges as well as the opportunities will emerge from a vessel into which exploration and research, dialogue and debate are poured. Challenges arise as social and economic structures try to adjust to the simultaneous phenomenon of diminishing young cohorts with rising older ones, and opportunities present themselves in the sheer number of older individuals and the vast resources societies stand to gain from their contribution.
This ageing of the population permeates all social, economic and cultural spheres. Revolutionary change calls for new, revolutionary thinking, which can position policy formulation and implementation on sounder footing. In our ageing world, new thinking requires that we view ageing as a lifelong and older persons.

Australia’s role in the First World War, or the Great War as it was known until 1939, is central to the development of modern Australia’s vision of itself in the world. In many ways it has served to create what is in some ways a second founding of the nation in the Gallipoli campaign and on the battlefields of France and Belgium. The influence of the war experience in the First, and Second, World War is evident in the way in which ANZAC day is, perhaps even more than Australia day, the country’s national day.
When the war broke out in 1914, it was a certainty that, because of longstanding economic, family and defense ties, Australia, along with New Zealand, would stand alongside Britain. The then Prime Minister Andrew Fisher was quick to pledge the country’s support to “the last man, the last shilling”. This was no idle promise and Australia paid a high price for their loyalty to their colonizers. From a pre-war population of 5m, 417,000 enlisted in the armed forces, of which 324,000 served abroad. By the end of the war, Australia had lost 60,000 dead and 155,000 men had been wounded. The economic price was also high. The national debt, which had stood at £6m in 1914, was £325m by the end of the war.

The Australia, along with Newzealand, had supported Britain in the world wars, and witnessed a massive participation in the armed forces, and ended upon huge loss in terms of economic crash and casualties of the countrymen, and all these are so evident in ANZAC day celebrations on every year.
The ageing population of the contemporary world is going through a revolutionary transformation by growing way beyond expectations, which can be compared with the industrial revolution or expected impact of globalization, and thus there will be an inimitable modifications in the hurdles and benefits associated.
The participation of Australia in the first world war in favor of Britain has impacted them economically and suffered huge casualties however people of Australia and New Zealand still show their respect by commemorating their war heroes on ANZAC day.
Due to the increase in the proportion of older people and decrease in the proportion of younger people nowadays, it is predicted by demographers that demographic revolution is inevitable, which will affect social, economic and cultural spheres of our life, therefore new thinking is required in order to adapt to these changes.
First and Second World Wars greatly affected the development of the modern Australia, which showed a great loyalty towards Britain, however this has lead to the dramatic loss of citizens and economic problems, including a national debt.
Australia paid the huge price in terms of human lives and public outstanding for its fervor and the loyalty towards Britain during the first and second world war.
The radical contribution of the older people in all sphere of life provides many challenges as well opportunities for the multi-generational and diverse demographic world.

Although, the role Australia in the great War until 1939, is central to the development of modern Australia’s vision of itself in the world because when the War broke out in 1914, the then Prime Minister Andrew Fisher was fast to pledge the country’s support to “the last man, the last shilling”, but it was no idle promise and Australia paid a high price for their loyalty to their colonizers and the economic price was also high.

This is over 75 words.
Although, the outcome of the Great War in 1914 was not favourable to Australia because the then Prime Minister Andrew Fisher was quick to pledge the country’s support to “the last man, the last shilling”, and that led to so much injuries and loss of lives and it incurred a high economic price but the responsibility of Australia in the First world, is central to the development of modern Australia’s vision of itself in the world.
Although, we live in an ageing world and some developing countries it has been fully knowledged that the global communication is “shrinking” the world, and global ageing is “maturing” because the demographers noted that if the present trends in ageing continue as predicted it will result to a demographic revolution and this ageing permeates all social, economic and cultural spheres.

In demographic revolution, ageing world makes people aware about living in adverse and multi generational society, which will lead to significant social, cultural and economic prosperity, thus revolutionary advancements turn into globalization.
The First World War had many impacts on Australia such as the Australia’s vision of itself in world, 15000 men wounded and 60000 dead, along with the high-priced economic and national debt of $325m by the end of the war.

Australia’s role in world war one, which lost 60000 men and the national debt had increased to 325 million, is so important that even country national day is not equally celebrated when compared to ANZAC day.
In this contemporary world, people live longer than the previous centuries, and the societies have to balance themselves between younger and older generations which are crucial for our future
The world ageing phenomenon has been acknowledged recently, old and young person help in globalization and increase socio economic growth, therefore ,these revolutionary changes in population permeates effects on making new laws and regulations.
Australia played a vital role in First World War and paid the high price for their loyalty by losing people, economic instability, and national debt because of the reason that Australia had strong economic and defense bonds, and vowed to stand by the last drop of blood.
Can anyone provide the feedback on it pls —- The world ageing phenomenon has been acknowledged recently, therefore we can witness a revolutionary change in socio economic growth with the help of old and young people; however, this change gives birth to new challenges, opportunities, and thinking which (will/subsequently?) place the policy on a sounder footing. thx

Which one seems better?
The current trend of ageing, a demographic revolution, as powerful as industrial revolution will bring both challenges and opportunities to the social, economic and cultural society.
Globally the inevitable phenomena of ‘Ageing’ realized recently which outnumber the young very soon therefore in order to sustain stringent modifications in the policies require to face upcoming challenges and opportunities.
The dawn of the new demographic revolution, in ageing, is growing unabated and it opens the doors for both the challenges and opportunities for the young cohorts and the society.
2 nd seems to be the best option
The developed countries taken a look towards ageing society and found that globalization is very low due to living in multigenerational people,the demographers claimed even in the neolithic period certain measures are taken for better economy ,so now global culture must be implemented,:hence no one predicts the impact’s of these change.
The involvement of Australia in first world war was paid high but at end of war they lost 60,000 people and 155,000 men were wounded ,additionally national debt was also raised.
The roots of Modern Australia grounded since first World War where it had suffered huge damages in terms of defense as well as economic while paying for being loyal to its colonizers in 1914.
Globally the inevitable phenomena of ‘Ageing’ realized recently which outnumber the young very soon therefore in order to sustain stringent modifications in the policies require to face upcoming challenges and opportunities.
Due to first world war, Australia had paid a high price for their loyalty to their colonizers as by the end of the war, Australia had lost 60,000 dead,155,000 men had been wounded and the national debt had been also increased.
The Australia extended full support to its long-standing ally Britain in the first world war and succumbed to burgeoning economic burden in the form of compensation to the armed forces.
The dawn of the new demographic revolution, in ageing, is growing unabated and it opens the doors for both the challenges and opportunities for the young cohorts and the society.
Thank you dear..
