The International Institute for Population Sciences (IIPS) in collaboration with Nordic Center in India (NCI) is presently organizing a four week training programme on “Demography, Gender & Reproductive Health” for the students from Nordic countries. This training programme commenced on 9th July, 2007 and will conclude on 4th August 2007 at Mumbai.

This is the second course that IIPS is organizing at the request of NCI for providing an exposure to Nordic students on India’s population and health issues.
