Niaga SPOTLIGHT: World Population Day 2026 | Building Families of the Future

What does it take to build a family in Malaysia today?
As living costs rise, caregiving responsibilities grow and Malaysia moves towards aged nation status by 2030, the focus is now on whether people have the confidence, support and economic security to build the futures they want.

This World Population Day 2026, Tehmina Kaoosji examines the economics of family formation, demographic resilience, ageing and care through the lens of Building Families of the Future with Representatives from LPPKN, UNFPA in Malaysia and IIUM.
