Investigating birth rate declines, with PeiChieh Hsu
from The Doomscroll News Report
This week, we're tackling just one subject-- but it's one that seems to plague our feeds every other week: Birth rates! In a world where birth rates globally are on the downturn, we wanted to know what effect that really has on us on the daily and what factors make it so difficult to tackle?To help us answer those questions and amore, Hanna invited PhD student PeiChieh Hsu. She's a researcher and student at Cambridge whose work has focused on issues of marriage equality, as well as women’s rights campaigns and policies of gender equality in Taiwan. Read along with us: "So you want to increase your country’s birth rate? Experts say it’s tough" (Vivian Hoang, Hannah Grabenstein, PBS), "The Hidden Roots of America’s Baby Bust" (Erin Ryan and Max Fisher, Crooked Media's "The Daily: How We Got Here" podcast)
