«We, the Portuguese: Born to avoid death»  examines the future challenges facing Portugal's demography: a declining birth rate insufficient to sustain generational renewal which migration unlikely to offset this trend, coastal population concentration and an increasingly depopulated interior.
This documentary envisions the effect of demographic changes on Portugal. With data from Pordata and a forward-looking view, this is a groundbreaking documentary.

Part of a series created by the Foundation to commemorate 10 years of Pordata and a decade's work explaining Portugal through official statistics.
