"Ukraine had one of the lowest birth rates on the planet. & then a war broke out" @PerelliHarris

@brik_t I completely agree, but all of my Ukrainian colleagues are in extremely difficult circumstance. I tried to organise a panel for Population Europe, but had to give up, because it was too stressful for my colleagues in Ukraine. We will reorganise when they can participate.
As a demographer, I have studied low fertility in Ukraine for decades. This baby was born in Kyiv during the war. My greatest hope is that after this war we will see a Baby Boom in Ukraine.
My colleagues @YHilevych, Ted Gerber and I conducted research in eastern Ukraine last summer. Please hear the stories of those trapped in Donetsk in 'The hope is finished': life in the Ukrainian separatist regions of Donetsk and Luhansk https://t.co/QRrc2UbaHp via @ConversationUK

Alex’s poster entry for #YISAPoster2020 is an Examination of Cohabitation Approval in Europe. Inspired by his MSc Dissertation at @UoSSocStatDemo, it explores the relationship between societal approval of cohabitation & prevailing social values. Any Qs? #Demography#Cohabitation
@nicholaraihani@martix_m Interesting. I'm in a completely different field, but the structure of your ERC rejection is remarkably similar to my own. I wonder if they use a template and just adjust a few words. e.g. "xxx was novel...the conceptual framework of xxx was not specified."
