Regional or Thematic ConferencesThe IUSSP, in co-operation with national professional associations, organised regional conferences in Sydney (1967) for Asia and Oceania; in Bangkok for South East Asia (2002); in Mexico City (1970) and Veracruz (1992) for Latin America; in Accra (1971) and Dakar (1988) for Africa; in Jyväskylä (1987), Paris (1991) and Milan (1995) for Europe and Cairo (1996) for the Arab world.
Two thematic conferences were organised, one on Economic and Demographic Change: Issues for the 1980s held in Helsinki in 1978, and the other on Women's Position and Demographic Change in the Course of Development held in Oslo in 1988. The regional and thematic conferences focus on specific problems relating either to a region or to a particular aspect of demography.
The IUSSP also participates in conferences organized by the Asian Population Association (APA), the European Association for Population Studies (EAPS), the Latin-American Population Association (ALAP), the Population Association of America (PAA), the Union for African Population Studies (UAPS), and the International Statistical Institute (ISI). | |
