Abstract:
Held every 4 years, the International Population Conference (IPC) organized by the International Union for the Scientific Study of Population (IUSSP) is like an Olympic for demographers. In October 2017, demographers and researchers around the world gathered in Cape Town, South Africa. Among thousands of them, 7 were from Institute for Population and Social Research (IPSR), Thailand. We presented our researches on population issues in Thailand, learned about the issues from other countries, and discussed with demographers around the world. In addition, we got to experience the country of rainbow in different ways, exploring, learning the culture, and observing the way of life. Please come join us in the In House Seminar to hear more about our academic and not-so-academic experiences in Cape Town.
