IUSSP: the world community of population specialists, its relevance for Indian scientists
15 September, 17:00-18:30 (India Standard Time)
The IUSSP is the world’s largest network of population specialists from across the globe. Its mission is to promote the scientific study of population, encourage cross-national and cross-sectoral exchange between researchers, and stimulate interest in population issues. Despite this, many individuals interested in population issues are unfamiliar with the IUSSP in many countries and including India.
This webinar has been organised by the International Institute for Population Sciences Alumni Association (IIPSAA) and Centre for Distance and Online Education (CDOE), IIPS, Mumbai. It intends to apprise the Indian population community about the IUSSP and the role it plays in furthering scientific knowledge both globally and in individual countries, including India.
The main speakers of the webinar are the office bearers of IUSSP, including its President, Secretary General and Executive Director, as well as faculty and students who have been involved in IUSSP activities. Their remarks will focus on several questions:
There are many advantages to being a member of the IUSSP, and this webinar is intended to encourage those who are not members, and especially the next generation, to participate in IUSSP’s activities, and together, strengthen the effect that population specialists can have on world development.
