[Futuregen] Tentative agenda for meeting 29.9

[Ricardo Rodrigues]

Dear colleagues,

Here is a tentative agenda for tomorrow.

I thought of centering this meeting around three main topics, but feel 
free to add or disagree with my proposal:

*WP3*: Discussion on the second paper proposed by Susan and Afshin (30 
minutes)

Susan and Afshin have proposed to do a second review paper based on the 
studies that were reviewed for the methods paper (apologies in advance 
if I'm miss-representing this). There were also other possibilities 
discussed at the time such as a proof of concept paper (applying the 
methods from the review to one unique dataset).

*WP4*: We had proposed something forward looking in our proposal (see 
text below) and I would like us to start a discussion on how to address 
the RQ presented below (30 minutes)

"RQ4.2) What is the distribution of health behaviours and resources in 
future cohorts of older adults across sex/gender and other social 
categories? We will compare the gendered distribution of health 
behaviors and resources among current (60+) and coming cohorts of older 
adults (ages 50-60) (Task 4.3) and assess to what extent future cohorts 
of older adults differ from current cohorts in ways that affect health 
and sex/gender inequalities in health and care-giving/receiving. We will 
use data from international surveys (European Social Survey, EU-SILC, 
SHARE, CCHS and CLSA). There is quantitative evidence that individual 
and social determinants (e.g. employment rate) vary across birth cohorts 
and across sex/gender of adults in Sweden [23]. A key issue in these 
analyses is the difference in response rates between cohorts, as 
differences in selective non-response may bias findings. We will address 
this by using weights that give underrepresented groups a balanced 
weight in the sample, and through sensitivity analyses to assess 
robustness of findings.
We will build on findings from WPs 1-3 and from RQs 4.1 (perceptions of 
older people) and 4.2 (resources and health behaviours of future 
cohorts) to make recommendations on development of policies to help 
tackle gender inequalities in health and care-giving/receiving and 
achieve SDG3 and SDG5 (Task 4.4). Initial policy implications from 
WPs1-3 will be critiqued and validated by the SB and interviews with 
older people."

*Data Navigator*: Eszter and Cassandra have put together a new version 
of the care receiving using terciles for income and wealth. They have 
also changed the education groups (from primary vs tertiary to primary 
and secondary vs tertiary). Please see the results in the attached file. 
There is still quite some variation and I would like us to discuss what 
shall we do/present in the Data Navigator. (30 minutes)

*AOB* (15 minutes): This includes also some information on dissemination 
activities.

Please feel free to add to this. The zoom link will be sent soon.

Best wishes,

Ricardo
