More than 25 participants, primarily from Asia, developed country\/region specific population models for Bangladesh, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Iran, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, Sri Lanka, and Thailand. During the workshop, demographic and data issues in each country were discussed, followed by an introduction to the methodology of multistate demography. A hands-on training session with an R-package (MSDem, Multistate Demography) was also conducted. The results are expected to be of high policy relevance for national and sub-national planning in the countries concerned.<\/p>\n
The first Asian summer school on demography, human capital, and economic growth, took place from 19 to 23 June 2017. The school hosted more than 15 PhD students and postdocs from around the world and focused on how demographic trends and improving educational attainment impact economic growth around Asia. Participants engaged in discussions about the so-called first and second demographic dividends and on the role of human capital as a determinant of economic development. Leading international experts from IIASA, Vienna Institute of Demography (VID), and ADRI gave lectures providing overviews of the state of knowledge in these fields.<\/p>\n
