The results of the DIALOG project entitled “Population Policy Acceptance Study”, funded by the European Commission and coordinated by the Federal Institute for Population Research under the direction of Charlotte Höhn, provides an opportunity to discover what the population in fourteen European countries thinks about family, children, partnership, equity and ageing. More than 30,000 people from the North Sea to the Mediterranean, from the Danube Delta to the English Channel, were questioned by experts in a study which was completed over a number of years.
