While the initial efforts focus on slowing the spread of the pandemic and mitigating its immediate impact, there are likely to be significant longer-term demography-related consequences. To investigate into these highly important topics the Wittgenstein Centre for Demography and Global Human Capital is dedicating it’s annual conference to the COVID-19 pandemic and it‘s demographic aspects. The conference offers a scientific platform to explore the contribution of demography in providing important input to handle future societal challenges.
