Episode 308: Talking Fertility
Manage episode 255321369 series 1988255
When news articles talk about the county’s declining fertility, there tends to be a tone of panic and often of judgment. But what is the truth of fertility rate declines? What role does policy play in impacting these rates? And how does the nature of fertility rates influence policy?
In this episode, Sarah Edwards (MPP 20) turns to a local expert, demography PhD Leslie Root. Leslie helps us unpack this specific intersection between demography and policy, and what it means for our future.
Curious for more information on changing fertility rates and policy implications? Check out the following:
- Leslie’s Washington Post Op-Ed: "Don’t Panic Over Declining Fertility Rates—And Don’t Let Anyone Guilt You”
- The Shift Project, which Leslie mentioned in the podcast. This research effort by Berkeley and UCSF researchers has advanced our understanding of the nature of shift work and the implications these policies have.
- Paid Leave US, an advocacy organization working to expand paid leave policies in California and the nation.
