Economic development in parallel to demographic changes over the past decades have altered family structures and the way care
is given and received along the lifecycle. This long-running trend has been recently affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, especially
the tragic rates of mortality in too many institutional care settings for the elderly, and the widespread closures of schools.
These dramatic changes make more evident how the market economy relies on non-market economic activities to provide welfare
in general and care to dependent children and elders. At the same time, it has highlighted just how much the informal care
economy relates to inequality in general and exposes the gender gap.

Ziel ist es, ein für Zwecke einer regionalisierten Bevölkerungsprognose operativ einsetzbares Mikrosimulationsmodell mit den
Merkmalen Alter, Geschlecht, Region sowie zumindest zwei weiteren Personenmerkmalen zu entwickeln. Die technische Unterstützung
umfasst: (1) Beratung zu Modellarchitektur, Design sowie Software-Lösungen, (2) Entwicklung von Modell-Prototypen, (3) Schulung,
(4) Unterstützung bei Code-Entwicklung, statistischer Modellierung, Parametrisierung, Validierung und Debugging, (5) Unterstützung
in der Entwicklung von Dokumentationen und (6) Unterstützung in der Entwicklung von Szenarien und Aufbereitung von Simulationsergebnissen.

This project builds on and further develops the existing Slovenian dynamic pension microsimulation model DYPENSI. The purpose
of the project is to ensure continuous research work on the development and maintenance of databases and model tools that
will facilitate rapid and efficient responsiveness to the strategic and current needs of the institutions responsible for
the economic policy in the important spheres of activity of the Slovenian government: the tax system and social contributions,
the pension scheme, social transfers and the labour market. The goals of the project are to develop a microsimulation model
of the labour market, to further develop the microsimulation model of social transfers, and to further develop the dynamic
pension model. The project is co-financed by the European Union and the Republic of Slovenia. The role of WIFO is to provide
technical support in the further development of the dynamic microsimulation model DYPENSI in the years 2018-2022.
