Hosted by the Government of Malawi and the Union for African Population Studies
BACKGROUND
Every four years, the Union for African Population Studies (UAPS) organizes a general conference on African population issues. The aim of these conferences is to share and disseminate research evidence on population and development issues and explore ways of applying the research evidence to improve policies and programs aimed at uplifting the well-being of people in Africa. The conference provides an opportunity for networking and knowledge sharing among researchers, policymakers, program managers, international development partners, and other key stakeholders in the population field. The conference includes capacity-building activities targeted at young scholars.
