Can A 'Caravan of Women' Save Spain? | 2019 Episode | SBS Dateline

Dateline visited Spain for this 2019 episode to investigate population decline, a major issue, particularly for regional towns. Bus loads of single women and groups of 'repopulating' millennials are trying to solve the problem.

In 2023, the Fraguas community featured in this episode ended after the regional government issued them with a fine and possible jail time.
