You are invited to submit proposals for presentations and posters for the British Society for Population Studies’ 51st Conference, to take place at the University of Bath, 9-11 September 2024. The conference promises rich opportunities to share knowledge and meet fellow demographers working in university, government and other practical settings, as well as space for early-career researchers to develop networks in the field.  

A provisional programme and booking forms will be available in May / June. There will be a full programme of simultaneous sessions of submitted papers, plus hands-on workshops and invited plenary sessions.

Abstracts for papers and posters across the entire demographic and population studies spectrum are welcomed. Any empirical or conceptual approach is welcome, with a  demographic or population studies focus. Abstracts for papers reporting on research should clearly outline aims, method(s), and results (even if preliminary at the time of submission). Conceptual papers should offer clear expositions of how the paper contributes to the field. The viability of strands and sessions will depend on sufficient submissions being received.  

Information on the Conference will be posted to the BSPS website.

Please choose your strand/session and submit via the online submission form before midnight at the end of Tuesday 30 April 2024. A short abstract of up to 250 words is requested. Please read the Document attached to this announcement to see the strands/sessions and further information.
