Baby born after 30 years: A child has been born after about 30 years in a small village situated in the hilly region of Italy, Paliaro di Marsi. After all, why do women not give birth to children here? Do you know the reason behind this?
A village in Italy is in the headlines across the world these days. A child has been born in the village of Pagliara dei Marsi in the Abruzzo region after 30 years. After this historic moment, there is an atmosphere of celebration in the entire village. In March 2025, Lara Bussi Trabucco was born, the first baby born here in three decades.
Decreasing population and vacant houses
The population of this village is continuously decreasing in Italy, the country of Prime Minister Georgia Meloni. The situation has become such that more cats are seen here than humans and many houses are lying vacant. However, after the birth of Lara, a ray of hope has started appearing again in the village.
Major reason for delay in motherhood
Population loss in Italy is becoming a serious challenge. Women are delaying becoming mothers. Same is the case with Lara – Lara was born in the lap of her 42 year old mother and 56 year old father. Here women are delaying having children due to not being able to maintain a balance between work and motherhood. The compulsion to leave the job during pregnancy and not getting work again later is also a big reason.
Crisis of falling birth rate in Italy
Italy has been struggling with the problem of population decline for a long time. The number of children born in the country will decline to 3,69,944 in the year 2024, which reflects the negative trend that has continued for the last 16 years. At the same time, the country’s fertility rate has reached 1.18, which is one of the lowest rates in the European Union.

Government efforts and baby bonus
The Italian government is making continuous efforts to increase the population. The government of Prime Minister Georgia Meloni has launched several schemes. On the birth of Lara, her parents have been given a baby bonus of 1,000 Euro (about Rs 1 lakh). Apart from this, financial assistance of 370 Euros (about Rs 37 thousand) is also being given every month.
One girl, thousands of hopes
After 30 years, this village seems to be blooming again with the birth of a child. Lara is being seen not just as a child, but as a symbol of hope and change for Italy’s dwindling population.
