The State of Pakistan Population Report (SPPR 2026) this year will be focusing on "๐˜๐Ž๐”๐“๐‡", and it is a national report that provides an in-depth analysis of Pakistanโ€™s evolving demographic landscape. The report focuses on critical population and development issues, including fertility transitions, youth empowerment, reproductive health, sustainable socio-economic development, and to inform evidence-based policies at national and sub national level.
The objective of the TAC meeting was to critically review and strengthen the proposed chapter frameworks, refine analytical methodologies, and ensure the development of evidence-based, high-impact, and actionable policy recommendations.
The insights and recommendations generated during the session will significantly contribute to strengthening the SPPR 2026, transforming data and evidence into an evidence-based framework that can effectively inform national and provincial policy decisions.
CePwS remains committed to driving meaningful policy dialogue to advocate and turn demographic challenges into sustainable development opportunities.
