The Population and Development Program (Pop.Dev) is dedicated to promoting reproductive rights, economic justice, and social equality for women through education, research, and analysis in women’s health, the environment, and population policy.
Founded in 1986, Pop/Dev brings a global perspective to the study and investigation of population and environmental issues and challenges traditional views of over-population and immigration as primary causes of environmental degradation, political instability, and poverty. Pop.Dev also serves as a documentation and monitoring resource for educators, students, journalists, activists, opinion leaders, and policy makers in the U.S. and abroad.
