The Family Policy Lab aims to conduct research on family demographic issues such as low birthrates, family and household changes, divorce, and single-parent households. We also study domestic and international family policy issues including work-life balance and policy delivery. Our lab is affiliated with the “Integrated Major in Regional Studies and Spatial Analytics (https://ressa.snu.ac.kr)” and the 4th BK21 Program.
We value translational research that can be practically applied to contemporary social problems. We have been involved in many governant projects funded by the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family (MOGEF) and the Ministry of Health and Welfare (MOHW). Opportunities to participate as paid research assistants in a variety of projects are provided to graduate students during the coursework.
