Under 5 y/o Population 1950-2100
This bar chart race shows the annual under 5 year old (0-4) population by country, world regions and world from 1950 and projected until 2100.
Projections are based on median fertility scenario.
Countries and flags are shown as they exist today.
Since 1950, the population of under 5-year-olds worldwide has experienced significant fluctuations. Initially, there was rapid growth due to post-war baby booms, especially in developed nations. However, this trend shifted as fertility rates declined in the latter half of the 20th century, leading to slower growth rates and even declines in some regions. The 21st century brought further changes, with developing countries witnessing a surge in under 5 populations due to sustained high fertility rates, while developed nations continued to experience stagnation or decline.
Projections until 2100 indicate a continuing divergence between developed and developing regions. In developed countries, fertility rates are expected to remain below replacement levels, resulting in a declining under 5 population. Conversely, in many developing nations, high fertility rates will drive substantial growth in this age group. Africa, in particular, is forecasted to experience a significant increase, and its under 5 population may under a higher fertility scenario surpass all other continents combined.
Factors such as improvements in healthcare, education, and economic development will influence these projections. Additionally, interventions aimed at promoting family planning and women's empowerment may alter fertility patterns, potentially impacting future under 5 populations. Understanding these demographic shifts is crucial for policymakers to plan for healthcare, education, and social services to meet the needs of the youngest members of society in the coming decades.
