Toronto Population Network

Join us for the first event of the Toronto Population Network, a new initiative aiming to foster collaboration amongst UofT demographers across disciplines. Spanning the University of Toronto’s tri-campus community, this interdisciplinary academic centre is dedicated to tackling today’s most urgent population challenges related to population dynamics, such as health disparities, housing, migration, fertility, family structures, aging, and mortality.

The goal of the mini-conference is to provide critical information about creating and sustaining a population centre at UofT.

Faculty and graduate students are welcome to join us at Hart House on November 6th from 9AM to 4:30PM.

A light lunch will be provided.
