Jacobs noted the Summit comes at a crucial time. "It's not Russia alone that's experiencing demographic winter," Jacobs observed. "Worldwide, birthrates have declined by more than 50% since the late 1960s. By the year 2050, there will be 248 million fewer children under 5 years-old in the world than there are today. This birth dearth will be one of the greatest challenges confronting humanity in the 21st. century."

Jacobs said special thanks go to Alexey Komov – head of the WCF Representative Office in Russia and the CIS, and organizer of the Demographic Summit – and Russian State Social University Rector Vasily I. Zhukov.
