Welcome
During the last decades all European countries faced a decline in fertility rates, although at a different pace. Evidence shows that there exists a gap between people's wishes to have children and their actual behaviour. The realization of their wish to have a child may not be completely within their control; they can be impeded by social, economic, cultural, psychological and other circumstances that appear both at the individual and the societal level. The main objective of the REPRO project is to upgrade the existing knowledge and to generate new scientific and policy-oriented knowledge on the factors that drive changes in the birth rates and influence the reproductive decision-making of contemporary Europeans.
