Population and development are interlinked. It is not easy to distinguish cause and effect relationship between these two. However, they may reinforce each other and may provide some synergistic role.

Country Report
You have been commissioned by Population Probe, an international organization concerned with global population and challenges with living standards. They would like your perspective on the population pressures and resulting environmental, social, political, and economic issues in different countries around the world and would like you to present these issues in a Persuasive Report. Your goal is convince Mrs. Brine to award Population Probe’s five billion dollars of aid money to your country (without skewing, distorting or omitting any facts!)
Your Persuasive Report must present the following information for your chosen country:
Required Information; try to be as current as possible. These are mostly statistics so you need to describe this information in full sentences and can put it all together in paragraph form. It can all be explained in one paragraph if you choose:
1. current population
2. population density
3. birth and death rates
4. stage in the Demographic Transition Model (give evidence as to how you know this)
5. infant mortality rates
6. life expectancy at birth
7. population growth rate
8. recent population pyramid (insert picture) and explain it
9. dependency ratio
10. emigration/immigration rates: you will likely only find the net migration rate so use that
11. literacy rate
12. GDP or GNP (Gross Domestic Product or Gross National Product)
The following topics need to be written in paragraph form; one paragraph per question. Please write about these topics as if you are there, visiting and researching in the actual country. Create sub headings in your report for each of these topics:
13. Discussion of national living standards: availability/access of food and water, overpopulation, employment opportunities.
Future of Cities: Insights from Multiple Expert Discussions Around the World
Following on from the main 2015 Future Agenda programme, last year we undertook additional Future of Cities events in Singapore, Beirut and Guayaquil. Exploring not only key current challenges and aspirations but also emerging issues, the insights from these and other discussions have all now been synthesized into a single summary. This document brings together views from a wide range of experts from the 2016 workshops as well as previous events in London, Vienna, Dubai, Delhi and Christchurch. Together it provides an overview of three common challenges, three shared ambitions and three emerging concerns that were highlighted in our multiple discussions.
Given the complex, interconnected nature of the drivers of change in cities, it is no surprise that there are hundreds of different reports already published exploring future trends either globally or locally. While this summary may overlap with a number of these reports, it is not intended to be a single answer to the future cities question. Rather it is, we hope, a mapping of the landscape, highlighting the core issues raised for today and tomorrow and pointing to potential areas for further exploration.
As we go forward with further workshops during 2017 planned in London, Toronto, Dubai and Mumbai, we will be delving deeper into some of the key issues, challenging assumptions and hopefully identify new approaches and sources of innovation. We will also be sharing a full report that adds extra context and detail gained from both the insights shared to date and the new ones added during 2017.
If you would like to join in some of the forthcoming events, do let us know. Equally if you have any comments and feedback on the views in this summary, please do feel free add them into the mix via slide-share, linked-in, twitter or email. This is an initial summary that will have gaps and alternative views that may well need modification in order to better represent a global view. We thank all those who have given up time to contribute to the workshops to date and to all those will be adding in their views going forward.

1. Using our interactive population graphics, match each of the age-sex population pyramids (labeled A through F) with the appropriate description.
(Points : 1)
Potential Matches:
1 : a country at close to zero population growth (Norway 1992)
2 : a country with many temporary immigrant workers (Qatar 1986)
3 : a country that shows the demographic effects of World War II (Russia 1992)
4 : a country that has undergone a recent shift from high to low fertility (China 1990)
5 : a country with declining population (Italy 1991)
6 : a country with rapid population growth (Tanzania 1985)
Answer
: A (top left)
: B (top center)

Question 2. 2. This is the first of four questions based on the interactive India-demographics tool. These graphs allow you to visualize the future population of India, as it changes throughout the 21st Century, under a variety of scenarios regarding changing fertility rates. All the scenarios start in 2000 with the following conditions:
· a total population of 1.014 billion
· a total fertility rate of 3.4
· a crude birth rate of 26.4 per thousand
· a crude death rate of 8.9 per thousand
Based on these numbers, what was India's rate of natural increase (i.e., annual population growth excluding net migration) in 2005? Note that you don't need to actually use the linked website to answer this question, since all of the numbers you need to calculate an answer are included above. (Points : 1)
0.55%
0.95%
1.75%
2.40%
3.10%
Question 3. 3. This is the second question based on the interactive India-demographics tool. One way we might establish a baseline for comparing alternative scenarios is to assume that the starting conditions persist indefinitely into the future. To do this using our tool, set the "Final Total Fertility Rate" to 3.4.
You'll see from the graphs, that this effectively freezes India in the middle of its demographic transition--longer life expectancies and lower death rates than in the pre-modern era, but birth rates hovering at a relatively high 24 or 25 per thousand. If this were actually to happen, the model shows us that India would end the century with a population of more than 3.6 billion! In what year would India's population first eclipse the two billion mark, double its turn-of-the-century size? (Points : 1)
2020
2030
2040
2050
2060
Question 4. 4. This is the third question based on the interactive India-demographics tool. In the previous question we tested one extreme scenario: fixing India's fertility rate at present levels. The opposite extreme would involve a sudden drop in fertility to well below the modern replacement rate, as actually has happened in much of Europe and East Asia. To view this scenario, set the "Final Total Fertility Rate" to 1.5, and leave the "Years to Achieve Final TFR" at zero.
You'll see from ...
The Human Population Challenge: From “Population Bomb” to “Demographic Crisis”Toni Menninger
A presentation about the Human Population Challenge developed for students in sustainability, including current data, basic demographic concepts, and a discussion of sustainability related issues.
The presentation "Growth in a Finite World" is closely related and precedes this lecture. The presentation "Energy Sustainability" is also suitable as a follow-up lecture.
Demographic analysis, the statistical description of human populations, is a tool used by government agencies, political parties, and manufacturers of consumer goods. Polls conducted on every topic imaginable, from age to toothpaste preference, give the government and corporations an idea of who the public is and what it needs and wants.
How do you know what your future market will look like? How can your business model adapt? And how can it help your business? Explore these questions using Horizons, a practical tool to help identify and think through the big environmental and social trends and issues.
In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

2. Large number of children as high death rate and to support parents in old age Newly industrialised countries like China fit into this stage. High birth rates are balanced by high death rates Very rapid population increase as birth rate is much higher than the death rate, although the countries are still very much LEDC’s. Parents begin to realise that children will survive so they have fewer children. There is a lack of medical resources. Local or natural resources relied on. Task: Add the correct statements to the correct stage on your Demographic Transitional Model in your exercise books Birth and death rates remain low. High infant mortality rates. There is little change in population as both birth and death rates remain low The United Kingdom fits this stage of the model Bangladesh fits this stage of the model. One well in a village which is ok for everybody to drink from.
