- Abstract
- The paper presents a population and age-sex structure forecast based on the medium UN scenario but taking into account the real fertility dynamics of the recent years. The results show that if fertility decline does not accelerate dramatically, Mozambique may reach the level of population of Russia by the end of the century. Moreover, the inertial scenario of demographic development bears serious strain upon the social infrastructure, systems of education and healthcare, and the development prospects of the country in general. Thus, the upcoming demographic explosion is a very acute problem for Mozambique and requires concentrated measures targeted at the acceleration of the fertility decline.
