A longer and healthier life is enjoyed by the citizens who can benefit from it. This evolution is also positive for the whole society. It is better for the economy, for a sustainable environment, for a peaceful planet, for the level of well-being in the society.This speech gives a description of positive political, economic and sociological aspects of a world with a largely delayed senescence.
The question of the moral necessity of health research funding will be discussed. Should the State subsidize life extension? Taking in consideration, medical progresses and the possibilities to accelerate them, we can consider the right to health as defined in national laws, national constitutions and international treaties under a new light.
