What happens when a European demographic research project asks a Berlin podcaster from the United States to explore their findings? Find out in Episode three of Certain Futures.

Episode three takes host Daniel Stern from the playgrounds of Berlin to the parental policies of Finland, and a conversation with demographer/sociologist Anna Rotkirch, a leading researcher and policy advisor on the topic. Why are we having fewer children? A look at the policies, social cues, personal experiences, economic factors and cultural forces that influence our decisions to try and become parents.

This limited-series podcast is produced by Radio Spaetkauf in collaboration with the FutuRes Project.

The FutuRes Project brings demographers and economists together with policymakers to advance what we know and how we plan for Europe's ageing society. You can find all the FutuRes research and other resources for understanding ageing and resilience in Europe on their website: https://futu-res.eu/ or also follow FutuRes on Linkedin.
