Togo Population Pyramid 2053
Togo in 2053
By 2053, the population of Togo is expected to reach 16,321,187. Ten years before, in 2043, the projected population is 13,851,202 — 17.8% lower.
The median age is projected at 24.8 years, with 51.3 children under 15 and 8.8 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.
