The project evaluates the impact of family policy and other determinants on the fertility rate. Based on an extensive review of the relevant literature in several disciplines, a behavioural microsimulation model will be developed that takes into account the interdependencies between the labour supply and the fertility decisions of the household and the path-dependent nature of these choices.
