The theme of the 12th conference of the Society for Longitudinal and Lifecourse Studies is Life Courses in Times of Uncertainty. This theme intends to capture the impact of societal (countries, welfare regimes) and meso-level contexts (local territories, organisations, social networks) on the life trajectories of individuals, mixing comparative and longitudinal analyses and how contexts change when individuals’ life courses take different normative paths across periods of time.

 

The conference will be an in-person event, hosted by Sabine Walper and her team at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, Germany.

 

Many thanks to our conference sponsors, Infas and the Life Course Centre, University of Queensland, and Mangold International.

 

Conference fees are discounted for SLLS members, and the society’s Journal Longitudinal and Life Course Studies will be a possible outlet for the publication of conference papers.
