What We Do

What We Do

We investigate how social, economic, and cultural factors shape fertility – and we build tools to help others do the same.

Research & Modelling

Fertility Risk Modelling: We are developing machine-learning models that map how variables like housing security and income relate to fertility outcomes.

Stewardship Assessment: A framework to assess how major policies affect family formation conditions over time.

Policy Analysis & Advocacy

We analyse how existing policies help or hinder family formation. We translate this into policy briefs, submissions, and constructive engagement with policymakers and media.

Cultural Narratives

Culture shapes fertility as much as policy. We monitor public narratives about childbearing and work to provide thoughtful counter-arguments and alternative stories of family life that are honest and grounded.

Tools for Individuals

We are building public-facing tools to make demographic ideas tangible, including future fertility impact simulators and interactive tools exploring family-size norms.
