Point of Reference: A Multidimensional Understanding of Migration, Fertility, and Reproductive Health
Posted: 11/11/2019 (CSDE Seminar Series)
This Friday, Julia Behrman, Assistant Professor of Sociology at Northwestern University will present on her analyses of how estimated associations between migration and fertility and reproductive health outcomes differ when comparing migrant women to non-migrant women in receiving versus sending countries. This method Behrman uses provides a fuller understanding of processes surrounding migration and assimilation to fertility and family norms in destination-contexts than past methods in studies on migration and fertility. Behrman will also discuss the role of selection into migration and provide insight into the mechanisms underlying fertility change among migrant populations.
