International Union for the ScientificStudy of Population (IUSSP)The IUSSP is the largest international professional association of population specialists. With over2000 members from 140 countries, the IUSSP brings together
researchers, scholars, policy makers and others from diverse disciplinary
and professional backgrounds to address key population issues.
The IUSSP’s main activity is the organization of scientific seminars andconferences. Every four years, the IUSSP organizes the International
Population Conference. This conference provides an opportunity for
scientists, programme managers and policy makers from all over the world to review advances
made in the study of population issues and to debate possible actions and policy responses to thechallenges posed by population dynamics.

Asia Pacific Day. The Conference will include a special programme of sessions focusing on the Asia-Pacific Region. The IOC has included a series of sessions focusing on Population and Policy Challenges in East Asia listed
under Theme 20, to which scholars working on the region are invited to submit abstracts. The Korean National
Organizing Committee will organize an Asia-Pacific Day, which will include 8 special invited sessions and a plenary. These special sessions will focus on unique demographic features of the region including population trends
and changes in North Korea, socioeconomic development and population change in South Korea, lowest-low fertility, and the challenges of addressing rapid population ageing. There will also be several sessions that focus on
recent information technology innovations, Smart Technology, and the impact these innovations will have on demographic issues such as population ageing, fertility, migration and health as well as their contribution to improving the collection and analysis of demographic data.
Side Meetings. Rooms are available for side meetings before and after the Conference as well as in the evenings
during the Conference. Information on side meetings will be made available on the Conference website and requests for side meetings should be submitted online on the Conference website by 15 May 2013. Requests
should specify the objective of the meeting and the number of persons attending, as well as any special equipment, translation and other services required for the meeting.
Exhibits. Institutions and others interested in displaying publications, products or services for the population community should consult the Conference website for information on availability and costs. Requests for exhibition space should
be submitted online by 15 May 2013.
Websites. Information for the Busan Conference will be made available regularly on the Conference website:www.iussp.org. The website will be open by 15 June 2012 for authors to submit abstracts for the conference.
Participants should regularly check the website for updated information.

CALL FOR PAPERS AND POSTERS
The scientific programme of the Conference will be created from abstracts submitted to the Call for Papers. This Call for papers lists 21 general themes and 165 sessions from which an expected total of 270
regular Conference sessions will be created. The International Organizing Committee invites membersof the population community to submit abstracts to the appropriate session or theme.
Session Organisers and Theme Conveners will select papers for presentation at the Conference on thebasis of the relevance and merits of the abstracts submitted to the proposed sessions. Abstracts not fitting a predefined session should be submitted to one of the 21 general theme sessions. Theme conveners
will create new sessions based on the number of high quality submissions received.

Languages. English and French are the working languages of the XXVII IUSSP International Population Conference. Abstracts, extended abstracts and papers can be submitted in English or French.

7.

Authors may modify their submission online at any time until 15 October 2012.

8.

If the submission is accepted a complete scientific paper or a document providing sufficient information
for review and discussion must be uploaded by 15 August 2013.

9.

Authors may submit up to three proposals (but there is no limit to the number of proposals for which they
are co-authors).

10. No participant should appear more than twice on the final programme as presenting author or discussant.
Where a presenting author appears too many times on the programme the Scientific Committee for the Conference may request the author withdraw an appearance.
11. Authors who submit an abstract for a paper or a poster should do so with the understanding that they plan
to attend the 2013 IUSSP International Population Conference. Participants are expected to cover their own
registration, travel and accommodation costs. All presenting authors, chairs and discussants should register and pay the registration fee before 15 July 2013. Papers where no author is registered for the Conference by 15 July will not appear in the programme.

2.

3.

Authors are requested to submit both a short abstract (200 words) AND an extended abstract (2-4 pages,
including tables) to be uploaded to the website. Extended abstracts must be sufficiently detailed to allow
the session organizer to judge the merits of the paper, including a description of the topic to be studied, theoretical focus, data and research methods, and expected findings. Authors should NOT submit a completed
paper instead of a long abstract as session organizers do not have enough time to read full papers.
Authors can submit their proposal in English or in French. Short abstracts will be translated for session organizers who cannot understand the language in which the proposal was submitted. Extended abstracts
will not be translated.
The author making the submission must provide the full names, affiliations and e-mail addresses of all coauthors for their submission. A list of population scientists is provided online to facilitate this task but authors are requested to verify whether the information provided is accurate (in particular the email address).
Authors should indicate which author will be most likely to present the paper at the conference and the language in which it will be presented. This information can be changed later.

4.

Authors must indicate whether they wish to submit their paper for presentation in a regular session or aposter session. Authors who wish to present in a regular session have the option to also have their paper
considered for a poster session if it is not accepted in a regular session. Papers whose authors do not tick
this option will not be considered for a poster.

5.

Regular sessions: Authors are requested to submit their proposal to the most appropriate session for theirpaper in a given theme. If no predefined session fits the topic of the paper, then authors should submit their
proposal to the most appropriate general theme session, which is the first session of each theme. Authors
may also submit their paper/abstract to a second session.

6.

Poster sessions: Authors can submit proposals to be considered only for a poster session. All the instructions
outlined above apply to the submission of poster proposals except that authors should submit directly to themost appropriate poster session in the list of 21 themes. Authors can submit to only one poster session.

Korea and the City of Busan
We welcome you to Busan, Korea. Busan is a bustling city of
approximately 3.6 million residents located on the southeastern tipof the Korean peninsula. Busan served as the country’s capitalduring the Korean War, and today has become one of Asia’s major
economic, artistic and cultural centres. Busan is nestled between
mountains, rivers and the sea with superb beaches, scenic cliffs, andmountains which provide excellent hiking and extraordinary views.
Hot springs are scattered throughout the city. Its deep harbor andgentle tides have permitted Busan to become the fifth largest port in
the world.
