Dear Colleagues,
Please find attached the Call for Papers for the
Wittgenstein Centre Conference 2021 on “The causes and consequences of depopulation”, 29.11.-01.12.2021
Although global population is still growing, an ever larger number of regions and countries are experiencing a decline in population size, and the COVID-19 pandemic may have further accelerated the process. Undoubtedly,
depopulation poses many challenges. In the public and policy discourse, negative views are often emphasised but may population decline also open up opportunities?
The Wittgenstein Centre Conference 2021 aims to bring together researchers from around the world working on population decline and its consequences from demographic, economic, sociological, political, environmental, and
geographical perspectives.
The call is open until 15 June 2021. The conference will take place from 29 November to 1 December 2021 in full distance mode via Zoom.
Please find further information in the file attached or online on our conference website:

We are looking forward to receiving your submissions.
Kindly distribute the Call for Papers within your networks.
Please excuse any cross posting.
With kind regards, also on behalf of the Organising Team
Petra
