Togo Population Pyramid 2029
Togo in 2029
United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Togo at 10,572,460 in 2029. Compared with 2019, when the projection stands at 8,463,068, that represents growth of 24.9% over ten years.
Half of the population would be younger than 20.8 years, with 37.8% children under 15 and 3.5% aged 65 or older. 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.
