In the 1990s the Population Activities Unit (PAU) of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UN/ECE) has co-ordinated the Fertility and Family Survey (FFS) project. Cross-national comparable data on fertility and family behaviour have been collected in 23 ECE Member States. These surveys have generated a wealth of information for a better description and explanation of recent changes in partnership and fertility behaviour. More than 60 projects of comparative research using the FFS Standard Recode Files have been launched. The FFS Flagship Conference is a kind of an end-of-project event, as it will take stock of what is known from FFS, as well as from other data, on new partnership and fertility behaviour patterns in Europe and North America.
