Guttmacher at PAA 2024

The Guttmacher institute will participate at the Population Association of America (PAA) annual meeting in Columbus, Ohio, on April 17–20, 2024. At the conference, demographers and social and health scientists will present their research in oral and poster sessions.

This year, Guttmacher is excited to be facilitating discussions, presenting with fellow researchers, and giving poster talks on topics such as reproductive justice, contextual influences on abortion and multiple factors impacting fertility patterns around the globe.
