Wolfgang Lutz addresses “birth rate” tensions in keynote

Wolfgang Lutz, leader of IIASA’s World Population Program and Director of the Wittgenstein Centre, in a lecture, “Starting a family in times of decreased fertility,” addressed the tension between the medical goal of “more live births” and the goal expressed by a Royal Society Committee of bringing down the global birth rate.

The 2 July lecture was to more than 9,000 people attending the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology conference in Istanbul, Turkey.
