Population and Development Committee of the Federation of Canadian
Demographers

The objectives of the Committee are to support the Canadian follow-
up to the 1994 Cairo International Conference on Population and
Development, and to increase the involvement of the Canadian
demographic community in matters of population and development.  

It is developing a distribution list that seeks to include various
parties associated with questions of population and development,
starting with interested members of the Canadian Population Society
and the Association des D‚mographes du Qu‚bec, but also including
other persons working on matters of population and development who
are not members of CPS nor ADQ, as well as Canadian ex-patriots and
persons who have studied in Canada.  This distribution list of over
100 people provides a network for interaction among persons
interested in population and development who have, or who have had,
a Canadian base.  Interested persons are also encouraged to
complete the form entitled "International Health Human Resources
Registry" of the Canadian Society for International Health.  

The Committee also seeks to support activities in population and
development, especially at External Affairs and at the Canadian
International Development Agency.  It is organizing a workshop on
"Canadian involvement in population and development" to be held in
Ottawa on 8-9 November 1996, just before the Canadian Society for
International Health "Third Canadian Conference on International
Health".  For further information contact Roderic Beaujot,
