Every four years, the Union for African Population Studies (UAPS) organizes a general conference on the African population. The aim of this conference is to share and disseminate research evidence on population and development issues and explore ways for applying the research evidence to improve policies and programs aimed at uplifting the well-being of people in Africa. The conference provides an opportunity for networking and knowledge sharing among researchers, policy makers, program managers, international development partners, and other key stakeholders in the population field. The conference includes various capacity building activities targeted at young scholars.
UAPS invites submissions for research papers, assessments of best practices, proposals for workshops, posters and exhibitions under the sessions grouped across the 16 sub-themes and sessions listed in the call for papers.
All submission must be made online on the 8th African Population Conference Website: http://uaps2019.popconf.org/.
All authors are asked to submit both: a) a short (150 word) abstract; AND b) either an extended abstract (2-4 pages, including tables) or a completed paper to be uploaded to the website following instructions available online.
