Tunisia in 2036

United Nations projections (medium variant) put the population of Tunisia at 12,842,491 in 2036. That would be 3.4% more than in 2026 (12,415,139).

The median age is projected at 38.1 years, with 25.6 children under 15 and 21.3 people aged 65 or over for every 100 people of working age (15–64). The narrow base of the pyramid marks a constrictive age structure: fertility below replacement level and a rising share of older people.
