AGE AND POPULATION

•A country’s development can be affected by the distribution and composition of it’s population.

•The structure of a population or population profile is created by the number of people in its various age categories.

TO THE PYRAMID!

THE POPULATION PYRAMID

•This is the population pyramid or age-sex pyramid.

•The population pyramid displays the percentages of the entire population in various age brackets.

•The Philippines has a young population.

•A country is considered young if a large part of its population is between 15 years old and below.

WE ARE YOUNG!

•According to 2007 estimates, people belonging to the 0-14 bracket comprised about 34.5% of the total population.

•The age composition has a big effect on the economic activity of the population of a country.
