Abstract

This paper summarizes the research on population-related issues done between 1980-2002. The review organized the research into the following areas: (a) demographic processes (fertility, mortality, migration, gender in demographic process); (b) program-related research; (c)population and environment; (d) population and poverty. Finally, for each of these topics, future research issues are identified.
