Project

Leveraging Micro-Level Computational Models to Advance Fertility Forecasting

Conducted by Daniel Ciganda; Julio César Cesano González; in Collaboration with Mikko Myrskylä, Julia Hellstrand (both: MPIDR)

We advance demographic forecasting, and fertility forecasting in particular, by providing a theoretically and statistically sound framework for producing explanatory forecasts. This framework will be easy to use, adapt, and to extend by other researchers and institutions in charge of informing the design of public policies.  Detailed Description
