Harvard Pop Center Social Demography Seminar with Hiram Beltrán-Sánchez
Hiram Beltrán-Sánchez, PhD, professor, community health sciences & sociology, UCLA, associate director, UCLA California Center for Population Research, and former Harvard Bell Fellow, presents “Mortality and survival among the older adult population in Mexico in the last two decades.”
The Social Demography Seminar (SDS) series at the Center for Population and Development Studies provides a lively forum for scholars from across the university to discuss in-progress social scientific and population research. Social demography includes work that uses demographic methods to describe and explain the distribution of social goods across populations. The hybrid series offers presentations on a wide variety of topics such as family, gender, race/ethnicity, population health—including mortality, morbidity, and functional health—inequality, immigration, fertility, and the institutional arrangements that shape and respond to population processes.
