Description
It's no secret that Minnesota's population is aging rapidly and our workforce is declining in size, with potentially seismic impacts on business, industry, and the state's overall economic health.
Given these realities, how can we keep older workers engaged and productive in the workforce, contributing vital skills to help Minnesota thrive in this changing landscape? What are the conversations that need to happen—between employers and employees, and across rural and urban communities—to tackle this growing challenge?

The Center hosted a series of conversations around the state of Minnesota from 2017 to 2019, to explore how these dynamics are uniquely impacting our communities and to identify possible solutions.
We concluded the series with a public forum in September 2019 to discuss our findings and recommendations for next steps, with special guest Tom Friedman, columnist for The New York Times.
