IUSSP Early Career Taskforce


Involving new generations of population experts in IUSSP

A new Early Career Taskforce has been set up by the Council in an effort to boost the inputs of young, early career population experts from various disciplinary backgrounds in the activities of the Union. Its ultimate aim is to actively engage new generations of population experts in the work of IUSSP. The taskforce was especially invited to propose activities for the 2021 IUSSP International Population Conference.
