Abstract:
The Brown University research program aims to increase the
understanding of how investments in health and fertility decline
contribute to economic growth. The project focuses on the effects of
changes in health and demographic structure on the level of economic
activity, the role of demographic change in the sustainable use of
environmental resources, and the long term effects of early child
health and nutrition on adult productivity.
