Millennials and Their Moms

11/23/2021

Are you are a Millennial or a generation Z adult 18 years or older or the mother of an adult in this age group living in Canada? If you are interested in participating in an interview, please DM this page for further details.

The purpose of this study is to help researchers better understand the relationship between Millennials and Gen Z adults and their mothers in Canada. It will provide insight into family dynamics with social and economic shifts before and after Covid-19. It will provide insight into largely invisible exchange economies in which young adults and their mothers participate that are not captured in Gross Domestic Product measures. In order to participate, you must: be living in Canada and 18-years or older and born between 1981-2003 (if part of the Millennials and Gen Z group) or be living in Canada and be the mother of an adult in this age group.
