The report “Factors Influencing Fertility Across Generations” (2022), authored by Ecaterina Grigoraș, investigates the socio-demographic factors shaping fertility patterns in the Republic of Moldova using data from the Generations and Gender Survey (GGS-II). It highlights the declining fertility rates and the postponement of childbearing due to extended education, career aspirations, and changing social values. The study analyzes generational shifts, the dynamics of reproductive behavior, and the emergence of diverse fertility models. It emphasizes the importance of targeted family policies to address low fertility rates and promote demographic resilience.
