The Leverhulme Centre for Demographic Science (LCDS) is a research institution at the University of Oxford, founded in 2019 with funding from the Leverhulme Trust and Nuffield College. Its mission is to advance the field of demography by integrating interdisciplinary approaches to address global population challenges.

Led by Professor Melinda Mills, the Centre focuses on a wide range of topics, including population composition, life expectancy, fertility, and the impacts of climate change. It has achieved significant milestones, including publishing numerous studies and securing substantial funding to expand its research.

The Centre emphasizes collaboration across various disciplines to tackle complex demographic issues, aiming to inform public policy and contribute to societal well-being through its insights into population dynamics and trends.
