Looking for an introductory paper on current issues in another region?

Many of us work in one region or perhaps even one country. We can find ourselves wondering ‘What issues are keeping family demographers busy in Latin America, West Africa….?’

We invite you to share papers, commentaries, links that you think are useful introductions to contemporary issues in intergenerational research in your country or region.

Brigida García Guzmán and Gabriela Meije-Pailles have started us off with two references on Latin America that others may find interesting. Please note your suggestions in the reply section and we will collate them during the seminar.
