Kirk Scott has contributed to Swedish and European demography for several decades and collaborated with many of us during this time. Some of us have known him since the early 2000s and he was also employed for some period at Stockholm University and its Demography Unit. Kirk was groundbreaking in his research on immigrant integration and demographic behavior. He connected researchers at many universities and research groups in Sweden and throughout Europe.

The colleagues at SUDA will miss Kirk as an enthusiastic colleague and warm-hearted friend, and will honor his memory.
