The "empty Sardinia". Pitiless data that describe a very serious emergency not always at the center of political debate.

Sardinia with South Korea is the area of the world with the lowest number of children per woman: less than one, just 0.9. The generational turnover proceeds very slowly with very serious consequences.

Fewer and fewer children are being born, just over 7,000 in 2023, compared to 18,500 deaths in the same year.

As of January 1, 2024, residents on the island are 1,569,000, for the first time below the consolidated threshold of one million and 600 thousand, with a loss of 8,314 inhabitants compared to the previous year.

In the video the interview with Luisa Salaris, demographer at the University of Cagliari.
