	Population Media Center - Using The Media To Sustain The Earth
		Population Media Center (PMC) strives to improve the health and well being of people around the world through the use of entertainment-education strategies, like serialized dramas on radio and television, in which characters evolve into role models for the audience for positive behavior change.
		Our mission is to collaborate with the mass media and other organizations worldwide to (1) bring about stabilization of human population numbers at a level that can be sustained by the world's natural resources and to (2) lessen the harmful impact of humanity on the earth's environment.
		The advantage of using long-running, entertainment serial dramas include their huge audience appeal and the emotional bonds that are formed between the audience members and characters, which can lead to strongly positive influences of the characters on attitudes and behaviors by audience members.

	RAND \| RAND Labor & Population \| Population Research Center
		The RAND Population Research Center (PRC) is dedicated to the scientific advancement of population studies in a period when demographic changes are creating especially complex theoretical and public policy issues.
		Given the diverse disciplinary training and research interests of the PRC staff, it is natural that our approach to demographic research considers not only traditional dimensions of populations, such as age, gender and race-ethnicity, but also physical and mental health status, cognitive ability, and economic status.
		Within this perspective, the Center's research agenda is characterized by its focus on three interrelated areas of demographic and economic research and a commitment to advancing the collection of high-quality micro-data on individuals, families, and communities.
