popconnect.org [popconnect.org] DONATE [[link removed]]
Hi Friend,
To kick off 2025, we are thrilled to host [[link removed]] Nandita Bajaj, Executive Director of Population Balance [[link removed]] , as she examines the roles of population growth and over-consumption in today’s most pressing global crises—climate change, resource scarcity, species extinction, and biodiversity collapse.
While leading scientific authorities recognize these connections, there has been widespread dismissal of the consequences of population growth within major global agencies, particularly the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) [[link removed]] . Nandita will highlight how this denial undermines the UN’s objectives surrounding human rights and sustainable development.
Nandita will share insights from a paper she co-authored published in the Journal of Population and Sustainability [[link removed]] , discussing concepts such as pronatalism, degrowth, and ecocentrism to present a case for rethinking growth, rebalancing humanity’s relationship with the planet, and reversing course to address ecological overshoot.
The event will include a live Q&A, allowing attendees to engage with Nandita. We invite you to attend the event next Wednesday, January 29 th , at 2:00 pm ET/11:00 am PT .
