Webinar: Women’s Empowerment, Population Dynamics, and Socioeconomic Development

January 7, 2025 727

Women’s empowerment, population dynamics, and socioeconomic development have been studied extensively from a variety of disciplinary perspectives. However, attempts to reconcile these perspectives and apply a holistic view to the relationships among these concepts have been rare, and this lack of consensus limits the extent to which these concepts can be applied toward accomplishing global health and development goals.
 
A new report from the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine’s Committee on Population looks to advance the state of knowledge on the impact of women’s empowerment and associated population dynamics on socioeconomic development by developing a conceptual framework describing these dynamics and setting an agenda for future policy-relevant research and data collection. As part of this webinar, members of the authoring committee will discuss the report’s conclusions and recommendations. The committee is part of the academies’ Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education.

Sage, the parent of Social Science Space, is a global academic publisher of books, journals, and library resources with a growing range of technologies to enable discovery, access, and engagement. Believing that research and education are critical in shaping society, 24-year-old Sara Miller McCune founded Sage in 1965.
