GGP Connect Webinar 32: “Fifteen Years of Fertility Decline: Why Register Data Alone Are Not Enough”
In this webinar, Ari Klængur Jónsson from the Icelandic GGS team examines the decline in fertility in Iceland since 2010 and highlights the importance of conducting the Generations and Gender Survey (GGS) in the country.
While Iceland has extensive register data, the infrastructure for fertility research has remained relatively underdeveloped. Iceland’s participation in the latest round of the GGS marks an important step toward strengthening the empirical foundation for future research on fertility and family dynamics.
The presentation also provides insights into the survey process, sharing reflections on survey implementation, fieldwork operations, and lessons learned from carrying out the study in Iceland.
Watch the recording to learn more about fertility trends in Iceland and the role of the GGS in advancing research on demographic change.
