You are invited to join us for an event with Dr. Jane O'Sullivan, who was featured in the December issue of
Population Connection magazine. Dr. O'Sullivan will discuss her research, which questions the reliability of the population projections made by the United Nations Population Division and other large demographic agencies. She examines the reasons demographers have assumed that high-fertility countries would see more rapid fertility declines than have actually occurred over the past two decades. And she explains how these fertility assumptions have resulted in projections that consistently underestimate future population size.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn more about population projections and their limitations, and about actions governments can take to foster the fertility declines that demographers keep expecting to see. The event takes place on Thursday, February 22, at 4:00pm EST/1:00pm PST. Register below! |
