Your say - for academics and students interested in African population issues

Go to Discussion Forum

We invite you to join our on-line discussion forum for students of Anthropology and Demography in Bristol and Addis Ababa Universities. It will serve as a point of contact between students in both Bristol and Addis Ababa Universities who study related courses in Biological Anthropology and Demography.

The discussion forum has been designed to be a shared electronic resource for students studying the following courses:

Current Debates in Population and Health

Unit director: Mhairi Gibson, University of Bristol, UK

Bristol students shall be required to utilise the e-forum by making weekly contributions to the topics initiated by the course organiser (Dr Mhairi Gibson), who will moderate the discussions. Students should both post queries and provide responses to students from the partner institution in Ethiopia.

Demography
