Workshop Aging, Care Need, and Quality of Life Rostock, 30.January 2008- 1 February 2008
Call
for papers: International Conference on “Can policies enhance
fertility in Europe?” organized by the Vienna
Institute of Demography to be held in Vienna/Austria, 6–7
December 2007
Deadline to submit abstracts or full papers is 12 October 2007.
The unprecedented, low fertility levels in Europe have raised considerable
concern among policymakers. The European Commission’s White Paper
The demographic future of Europe – from challenge to opportunity
(COM (2006) 271 final) clearly expresses the need for governmental action.
The purpose of this conference is to present and discuss past and future
trends in the relation between fertility and the prevailing policy environment.
In particular the conference will address the question of which policies
can influence fertility and to what extent?
The organizers invite contributions on the following topics:
• Indicators of the tempo and quantum of fertility: Which fertility
indicators are appropriate for studying the effects of policies? How
would policies addressing the tempo of fertility differ from those addressing
the quantum?
• Desired vs. realised fertility: Is there a persistent gap between
desired and realised births? What reasons impede people to have the
number of children they want to have? Is the conflict between work and
childcare at the heart of the problem? Which policies could help to
close the gap?
• Micro-macro relations and the welfare state: To understand the
role of policies in fertility decisions we need to go to the micro level.
However, society imposes constraints and incentives on individuals.
Is multi-level analysis the best way to study this question?
• Co-benefits and contradictory policies: Many policies are primarily
motivated by a social or gender policy rationale with the hope that
they may also lead to higher fertility as a side effect. Is this realistic?
Would changing certain policies with anti-natalist side effects make
a difference?
Proposals of other relevant topics are welcome. The conference will
bring together scientists and selected policymakers in a lively discussion
about the future of Europe’s population. We plan to document the
conference by a publication.

PAA in New Orleans, April 17-19, 2008
The Big Easy was knocked down but not out by the levee failures following
Hurricane Katrina in August 2005. The extensive flooding of key residential
areas has resulted in unprecedented shifts in population size and composition,
and these profound demographic changes will be highlighted at the meetings.
There will also be opportunities for attendees to visit affected areas,
be briefed about their recovery, and even participate in the rebuilding
in a small way.
But the older sections of the city most familiar to visitors did not
flood and were scarcely damaged at all. The convention hotels and nearly
all of the major restaurants, the entire Central Business District,
the French Quarter and Marigny Districts, the Garden District and Uptown
– i.e., all of the major tourist areas - are all now fully functional.
Opportunities to explore and enjoy the “old” New Orleans
will be extensive. A special wildlife tour into the swamp, as well as
a “wildlife” tour of the best music and nightclub scenes
in the city are in the works. Those returning to New Orleans will find
nearly all of their favorite restaurants and night spots ready and eager
to welcome them back.
For the most serious music lovers, plan to come early or stay late:
PAA week will be sandwiched by French Quarter Fest (April 11-13) and
the first week of Jazz Fest (April 25-27).
We’re planning for a big time in the Big Easy!

Belgian Platform on Population and Development
The Belgian Platform on Population and Development kindly invites you
to participate in the international conference ‘Population
Ageing. Towards an Improvement of the Quality of Life?’
on 1st March 2007 in Brussels, Belgium.
The subject of the conference is directly linked to the annual theme of the 40th session of the Commission on Population and Development (CPD) of the United Nations. In 2007 the subject is: “The changing age structures of populations and their implications for development” ? in other words, ‘population ageing’’.
Please see the programme of the conference.
There are in total 13 international speakers. The purpose of the conference
is to put the issue of ‘population ageing’ (and the socio-economic
problems associated with it) into a broad international perspective.
Indeed, ‘population ageing’ is not a ‘European’
issue, but a ‘global’ issue.
Presentations will be made in English, French, and Dutch. Simultaneous translation will be available in all three languages.
The presentations will be followed with discussions from the floor and
with panel discussions. The panel members will be a mixture of parliamentarians,
academics, representatives of ngo’s, and high-level civil servants.
All panel members have a keen interest in the subject of population
ageing, its socio-economic consequences and its importance in the broader
perspective of international development cooperation.
The conference is organised under the auspices of the Directorate-General
for Development Cooperation (DGDC), the Institute of Tropical Medicine
(ITG) in Antwerp, and the Study Centre of the Flemish Government (SVR).
The venue of the conference is indicated on the registration
form. (See also French or Dutch
version of the form) For those of you who come from outside Brussels,
please note that the Hendrik Consciencegebouw is at
10 minutes walking from the North Station (and close to the Place Rogier).
Important! The participation at the conference is free. The only requirement to participate is to fill out the registration form and return it before 17 February to the organisers : conference@sensoa.be .
A timely registration will guarantee an invitation to a free lunch (a cold buffet) and to the reception at the end of the conference.
With kind regards, and hoping to meeting you in great numbers on March
1st, 2007.
On behalf of the organising committee,
Ronald Schoenmaeckers

Innovative Methodologies for Censuses in the New Millennium An ISI, IASS, IAOS sponsored Satellite Meeting of the 56th Session of the ISI, Lisboa, 2007
August 31st - September 2nd 2007
Southampton Statistical Sciences Research Institute, S3RI
University of Southampton, Southampton, UK
CALL FOR PAPERS
Population censuses are a key source of detailed demographic and socio-economic information, despite increasing difficulties in conducting them. In addition, they are often the main source for the updating of sampling frames that form the basis for carrying out regular household sample surveys, required to provide ongoing information for monitoring economic and social development. In the past, conferences on the topic of censuses have tended to focus on the management of the census process, rather than on the underlying methodology, with methodological issues usually confined to occasional sessions at general statistical conferences. In recent years, National Statistical Institutes (NSIs) have been directing more resources for developing innovative statistical methodological techniques, in order to increase the efficiency of the census process, such as in non-response and coverage adjustments, estimation, editing and imputation techniques, etc. The aim of this meeting is to highlight and focus on the methodological advances that are taking place around the world, and raise awareness regarding best practices in census methodology.

Workshop on "Individual, area and group variation in morbidity and mortality", Monday 17th September - Wednesday 19th September 2007.
The workshop is being organised by the Dipartimento di Scienze Demografiche of the Università degli Studi di Roma "La Sapienza" and IRPPS-CNR (the Italian Research Institute on Population and Social Policy of the National Research Council) and will be hosted by IRPPS. The local organising committee is chaired by Viviana Egidi and Frank Heins. As in the past, there will be no registration fee, but participants will need to make their own travel and accommodation arrangements. Further information, especially regarding the local arrangements will be published in due course on www.irpps.cnr.it.
As we search for ever more complete explanations of differences in health and longevity, mortality research is expanding its gaze. We are no longer satisfied just to look at current conditions of the individual: the physical and social environment or the quality of public health and medical assistance. Without denying the importance of these, we are now looking backwards, at genetic, childhood and even prenatal influences; we are looking at household structures and the social environment, the effects of local-area averages, inequalities and social heterogeneity, and the way these all interact with individual characteristics. In a way, the question remains the same: what are the requirements of the human organism if it is to survive and stay healthy, and how do these needs vary with age and sex? At the same time, however, we appreciate that the answers need to be sought at many different levels and over a long period of time.
The workshop will look at work being done at these different levels, juxtaposing them, and seeking new, synthesising formulations. It is anticipated that there will be about 20 participants in the workshop, giving each participant a good half hour to present his/her work and then have it discussed by the whole group. Researchers interested in presenting their work at the workshop are invited to contact Jon Anson at anson@bgumail.bgu.ac.il (fax: +972 8 647 2933) with an abstract or preliminary conceptualisation. Please also send a copy to Viviana Egidi at viviana.egidi@uniroma1.it (fax: +39 06 8530 3374).The deadline for submission of abstracts is Friday, 30th March, but please contact us sooner, if possible.
