Due to  the situation with regard to the spread of the Covid-19 epidemic in Europe, we unfortunately must cancel the Berlin Demography Forum, the European Demography Forum and the Global Demography Forum from the 23rd to the 25th March 2020.

However, we can already announce that we will only postpone these events. According to plan, the Berlin Demography Days will now be held from 22nd to the 24th March 2021, and we would like to ask you to make a note of this date in your calendar.
