📺 ICYMI last night - CPC member Brienna Perelli-Harris (University of Southampton‬) was interviewed by #BBCSouthToday about the effects of falling #birthrates

The interview appeared in an evening news feature on the effects of fewer #children on local child-focused #businesses. Brienna said research suggests attitudes towards having children are shifting among #youngergenerations based on findings from her ‪#ESRC -funded UK #GenerationsandGendersurvey project https://youtu.be/H0sj8LWcMUw?si=SicgExUtRX6-lwdy

Dr Vincent Ramos, lead author, said: “Policies addressing early #labourmarket instability and improving access to #assetbuilding opportunities are crucial to reducing long‑term #inequality.”
