Tunisia, Cuba and Benin (Seminar 9 December 2015)

This seminar is a follow up of the 29-30 September 2015 international Conference on “Demographic dynamics, social policies and intergenerational relationships: towards new configurations?”. Giving the floor to different researchers and practitioners, we wish to raise new discussions and debates between sociologists, demographers, anthropologists and other social policy specialists on the basis of recent research.
This 3rd meeting, still organised within the research programme “Demographic (im)balances, family solidarity and social policy » of Ined’s Mobility, housing and social networks research unit, is supported by Paris Descartes University and Ined. The morning session is open to all.
