Address these issues to decrease birth rates.

Improve economic status with opportunities, especially for women—gives them control over their own lives and improves health of everyone.

Providing BC will only help in areas where women want it but can’t get it, but this will not help if desired fertility is high and is not usually the “answer” to high birth rates.

INFO LIT PRESENTATION

CLASS DEMONSTRATIONPopulation growth and declining growth rates

World population growth rates are declining and are currently at 1.12%. What does this mean about population size in the coming decade?

a) It is declining and will continue to do so.

b) It is stable, neither increasing or decreasing.

c) It is still increasing, just more slowly than it did in the past.

It is still increasing, just more slowly than it did in the past.

What would the growth rate need to be to have no population growth?

ZERO

How can population still be growing if population growth rates are declining?

M&Ms will help us see.

As long as the population growth rate is a positive number, population will continue to increase.

TEAM ACTIVITY

By far, most future population growth will occur in Africa. Niger, for example, has one of the highest population growth rates in the world (see IG 4.3 on page 62). Identify three things that you think would be most effective in reducing the population growth rate in Niger and explain how each thing will decrease population growth rates. (Be sure to relate your choices to DESIRED FERTILITY—the factor that is most closely tied to actual fertility.)
