Resumo
The paper is focused on the interrelationship between demographic resources and sustainable development, illustrated by the case studies of two regions of Portugal: Alto Minho in the North, and Alto Alentejo, in the Centre-South. In the introduction, conceptual issues related to demographic sustainability and rural development are discussed. In the following sections, the main socio-economic features of these two regions and a brief diagnosis of their population structure and dynamics are presented. This serves as the basis for the identification of strengths and weaknesses, as well as of the opportunities and threats related to demographic sustainability of those regions. In the concluding section, guidelines for promoting sustainable development of Alto Minho and Alto Alentejo are presented.
