ABOUT ESPE

The European Society for Population Economics was founded in 1986 to facilitate the communication and exchange of ideas between researchers from European and other countries around the globe. Equal emphasis is given to theoretical and applied research across a wide range of fields, all related to population economics.

Research interests of members of the Society include: education, health, labour market topics (human capital, employment, unemployment, wages, firm behaviour), demographics (marriage, fertility, ageing, retirement, mortality, immigration), income (poverty, inequality), housing and household issues, inter-generational mobility, crime, discrimination, institutions, and policy evaluation.
