About

Adele Hayutin, an Annenberg Distinguished Visiting Fellow at the Hoover Institution, is a business economist specializing in comparative international demographics. Building on her experience in business and academia, Dr. Hayutin has developed an innovative comparative perspective that highlights surprising demographic differences across countries and illustrates the unprecedented speed and impacts of critical changes. She is skilled at developing compelling visual displays and presenting complex information to policy makers and business executives. Her 2022 book New Landscapes of Population Change: A Demographic World Tour illuminates the divergent changes ahead for the world, its subregions, and individual countries, and demonstrates the urgent need for strategies that address these momentous shifts.
