Sudan Population Pyramid 2050
Year
2050Sudan in 2050
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Sudan at 85,206,383 in 2050. Compared with 2040, when the projection stands at 71,730,600, that represents growth of 18.8% over ten years.
The median age is projected at 25.0 years, with 50.1 children under 15 and 8.4 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). This is an expansive pyramid — each cohort of children is larger than the one above it, the signature of high birth rates and rapid growth.
