International Union for the Scientific Study of Population
The International Union for the Scientific Study of Population (IUSSP) "promotes scientific studies of demography and population-related issues. Originally founded in 1928 and reconstituted in 1947, the IUSSP is the leading international professional association for individuals interested in population studies. The IUSSP network includes over 2000 members world-wide, one third of whom are from developing countries. The IUSSP's main goal is to "foster relations between persons engaged in the study of demography in all countries of the world, and stimulate interest in demographic matters among governments, national and international organisations, scientific bodies and the general public."
