| Abstract: | Malta will only be able to address its low fertility rate once it swaps the cultural norm of "killing oneself with work" with one that focuses on people's wellbeing, Marie Brigulgio told a conference on Friday. The economist was discussing Malta’s low fertility rate - the lowest in Europe at 1.13 live births per woman. According to Eurostat, this is significantly lower than the EU average of 1.53 births per woman. |
