We're bringing new functionalities to the Population Project

Antoine Bello · September 27, 2023

Today we’re introducing a flurry of new functionalities to the Population Project.

You can now create records (including your own!), edit, bookmark and share profiles with your friends and family.

Spoiler alert: these new features are not entirely bug-free, which is why we would appreciate it if some of you could give us a hand with testing. No need to be a coder, just bring your common sense and a bit of patience.

Please contact us if you’re willing to help - as much or as little as you want. Many thanks in advance for your help.
