Members NewsCongratulations
Past President of the IUSSP, Peter McDonald has been honored with the award of Officer of the Order of Australia for his distinguished service to demographic research, to policy development, and to professional associations. Congratulations for this well-deserved award and for the great efforts he has made for the IUSSP over several decades. In MemoriamJohn Edwin Knodel (1940-2024) John E. Knodel died on January 10, 2024, in Ann Arbor, Michigan at the age of 83. He had joined the IUSSP in 1968 and was a member of two of its scientific committees in the 1980s. Throughout his career, both in the US and in Thailand, he regularly participated in IUSSP actvities and conferences.
Michel Loriaux (1940-2024) It was with great sadness that we learned of the death of Professor Michel Loriaux on 12 February 2024. He joined the IUSSP in 1969. Michel Loriaux was a multi-faceted intellectual: a fine methodologist, a fervent advocate of systemic approaches in the social sciences, and a man of convictions and debates.
