The Centre de recherche en démographie et sociétés at Université catholique de Louvain (Belgium) is hosting the 2009 Quetelet Seminar on ‘Population Policies in Europe and in North America’ from the 18th to 20th of November 2009.

The 2009 Quetelet Seminar will be devoted to population policies, those already implemented or to be implemented, in industrialized countries, and more specifically in Europe (including Russia) and in North America. The conference will be structured as both a theoretical reflection on population policies – their aims, their fields of action – and as a presentation of case-studies. Empirical studies will mainly concern policies that support having children, policies for ageing and migration policies. Contributions in other fields of application of population policies are also encouraged.

The call for papers will be open until the 17th of August, and can be submitted to: isabelle.theys@uclouvain.be
