Dutch Demography Day 2026

GGP highlights at the Dutch Demography Day.

The GGP team attended the 18th edition of the Dutch Demography Day, organised by the Netherlands Demographic Society (NVD). 

We are proud that the Gender and Generations Survey (GGS) was represented repeatedly throughout the program: 

  • Martijn Schoenmakers presented a study that will investigate mode effects in mixed-mode GGS-II designs (CAWI, CATI, CAPI), with the aim of informing best practices and ensuring data comparability in future GGS waves.
  • Using GGS Round II data, Daniel van Wijk examined whether homeowners are more likely than renters to become parents. 
  • Yuxuan Jin analysed retrospective GGS data from 21 European countries to study how parental death before age 18 shapes transitions to adulthood, exploring differences by the deceased parent’s gender and national context.

The GGS was also featured in the poster session:

  • Alex Kortink Boada presented research on educational bias in the GGS, assessing whether the shift towards web-based and mixed-mode data collection has intensified the underrepresentation of lower-educated groups across survey rounds and countries.

We are especially proud to share that Alex Kortink Boada won the Poster Prize!

It was inspiring to see how the GGS data continues to support innovative research!
