Going to #IPC2025? Please consider sending your work to 'Session 18. Family networks beyond the household: an international perspective', which I will chair. Not sure if it's a good fit? Happy to answer any questions about the appropriateness of the session for your work!

A change in the sharing of software codes is needed to further advance #demographic #research. In my reflection, I discuss some recommendations for promoting this change #openscience 👇

What's up with kinship demography? How does it fit within the wider discipline and how does it relate to family demography? Help us find out at the #EPC2024 panel conversation featuring Abbey Page Chia Liu and Anette Fasang, moderated by Bettina Hünteler 👇
