Africa in 2047

By 2047, the population of Africa is expected to reach 2,356,367,847. Compared with 2037, when the projection stands at 1,983,888,830, that represents growth of 18.8% over ten years. With a projected median age of 24.7 years, Africa would have a youth dependency ratio of 50.8 and an old-age dependency ratio of 8.7 per 100 people of working age. The pyramid is expansive: its wide base of young cohorts reflects high fertility and a rapidly growing population.
