Journal of Demology presentsSeptember 15, 2027
Population Futures 2027
Three days of careful conversation about population change, migration, ageing, family life and the evidence public decisions depend on. Population Futures brings researchers, practitioners and editors together around methods that travel beyond the conference room. This is a live demonstration conference from the Journal of Demology.

01 / About
Population change is never just a number
Population Futures is a working conference for people who want demographic evidence to survive contact with the real world. Across three deliberately paced days, we will connect rigorous methods with the decisions shaping homes, services, mobility and care. Expect concise talks, generous discussion and practical sessions designed to leave room for better questions.
