However, estimates outside of the United Nations have put forward alternative models based on additional downward pressure on fertility (such as successful implementation of education and family planning goals in the [[Sustainable Development Goals|UN's Sustainable Development Goals]]) which could result in peak population during the 2060–2070 period rather than later.<ref name=":3" /><ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Vollset|first1=Stein Emil|last2=Goren|first2=Emily|last3=Yuan|first3=Chun-Wei|last4=Cao|first4=Jackie|last5=Smith|first5=Amanda E.|last6=Hsiao|first6=Thomas|last7=Bisignano|first7=Catherine|last8=Azhar|first8=Gulrez S.|last9=Castro|first9=Emma|last10=Chalek|first10=Julian|last11=Dolgert|first11=Andrew J.|date=2020-10-17|title=Fertility, mortality, migration, and population scenarios for 195 countries and territories from 2017 to 2100: a forecasting analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study|journal=The Lancet|language=English|volume=396|issue=10258|pages=1285–1306|doi=10.1016/S0140-6736(20)30677-2|issn=0140-6736|pmc=7561721|pmid=32679112|doi-access=free}}</ref>

Even though the global fertility rate continues to fall, chart #2 shows that because of [[population momentum]] the global population will continue to grow, although at a steadily slower rate, until the mid 2080s (the median line). 

The main driver of long-term future population growth on this planet is projected to be the continuing evolution of [[Total fertility rate|fertility]] and [[Mortality rate|mortality]].<ref name=":3" />

== History of population projections ==
Projections of global human population are generally based on birth rates and death rates, and since these are difficult to predict very far into the future, forecasts of global population numbers and growth rates have changed over time. 

=== 19th century ===
In 1831, president of Yale college [[Jeremiah Day]] included a United States population estimate as an example of an [[Exponential function|exponential equation]]. After stating that the 1820 population of the United States was 9,625,000, the projected 2020 population would be 2,464,000,000 (supposing it to double once every 25 years).<ref>{{Cite book |last=Day |first=Jeremiah |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=EzMAAAAAYAAJ&dq=world+population+year+2020&pg=PA39 |title=The Principles of Plane Trigonometry, Mensuration, Navigation and Surveying |date=1831 |publisher=H. Howe |language=en}}</ref>

=== 20th century ===
[[Walter Greiling]] projected in the 1950s that world population would reach a peak of about nine billion in the 21st century and then stop growing after an improvement in [[public health]] in [[Least developed countries|less developed countries]].<ref>Walter Grieling: Wie werden wir leben? (''"How are we going to live?"'') Econ publishers, Munich 1954</ref>

In 1992, the United Nations published five projections of long-term world population growth. According to their medium projection, the world population would grow to 10.0 billion by 2050, 11.2 billion by 2100, and 11.5 billion by 2150.<ref name="McNicoll1992">{{cite journal |last1=McNicoll |first1=Geoffrey |title=The United Nations' Long-Range Population Projections |journal=Population and Development Review |date=June 1992 |volume=18 |issue=2 |pages=333 |doi=10.2307/1973683}}</ref>

=== 21st century ===
Estimates published in the early 2000s tended to predict that the population of Earth would stop increasing around 2070.<ref>Ciro Pabón y Ciro Pabón, Manual de Urbanismo, Editorial Leyer, Bogotá, 2007, {{ISBN|978-958-711-296-2}}</ref> For example in a 2004 long-term prospective report, the [[United Nations Population Division]] projected that world population would peak at 9.2 billion in 2075 and then stabilize at a value close to 9 billion out to as far as the year 2300.<ref name="un-esa1">United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs.  ''[https://www.un.org/en/development/desa/population/publications/pdf/trends/WorldPop2300final.pdf World Population to 2300]''.  2004. Executive Summary, p. 1.</ref>

[[Jørgen Randers]], one of the authors of the seminal 1972 long-term simulations in ''[[The Limits to Growth]]'', offered an alternative scenario in a 2012 book, arguing that traditional projections insufficiently take into account the downward impact of global urbanization on fertility. Randers' "most likely scenario" predicted a peak in world population in the early 2040s at about 8.1 billion people, followed by decline.<ref name=":0">{{cite book |last=Randers |first=Jørgen |title=2052: A Global Forecast for the Next Forty Years |publisher=Chelsea Green Publishing |year=2012 |location=Vermont |page=62 |author-link=Jørgen Randers}}</ref>

In 2012, the UN changed its prediction to the effect that no maximum would likely be reached in the 21st century, and that by the year 2100 world population would increase to somewhere in the range 9.6 to 12.3 billion with 10.9 billion being the midpoint of that range.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |date=2012 |title=World Population Prospects, Standard Projections, Archive, 2012 Revision, Total Population Both Sexes file |url=https://population.un.org/wpp/Download/Archive/Standard/ |website=United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division}}</ref> The main reason for the revision was a recognition that the high fertility rate in [[demographics of Africa|Africa]] was not declining as fast as had been previously assumed.<ref>{{Cite web |date=17 June 2013 |title=World Population Prospects, the 2012 Revision |url=https://www.un.org/en/development/desa/publications/world-population-prospects-the-2012-revision.html |website=The United Nations Department of Social and Economic Affairs}}</ref>  

Another 2014 paper by demographers from several universities, using data from the UN's 2014 report and their own statistical methods, forecast that the world's population would reach about 10.9 billion in 2100 and continue growing thereafter.<ref name="Science">{{Cite journal |last1=Gerland |first1=P. |last2=Raftery |first2=A.

In 2017 the UN predicted that global population would reach 11.2 billion by 2100 and still be growing then at the rate of 0.1% per year.<ref name="esa.un.org" />

The 2022 revision of the UN's World Population Prospects report<ref>{{Cite web|date=2022|title=World Population Prospects 2022|url=https://www.un.org/development/desa/pd/sites/www.un.org.development.desa.pd/files/wpp2022_summary_of_results.pdf|website=United Nations}}</ref> represents a departure from the pattern of the previous ten years and expects that a slowing of the population growth rate will lead to a population peak of 10.4 billion in the 2080s, after which it would then begin to slowly fall. This shift from earlier projections of peak population and predicted date of zero population growth comes from a more rapid drop in Africa's birth rate than previous projections had expected.<ref name=":2">{{Cite news |date=April 5, 2023 |title=The world's peak population may be smaller than expected |url=https://www.economist.com/middle-east-and-africa/2023/04/05/the-worlds-peak-population-may-be-smaller-than-expected |newspaper=The Economist}}</ref> For example, the 2012 report predicted that the population of Nigeria, Africa's most populous country, would rise to 914 million by 2100; the 2022 report lowers that to 546 million, a reduction of 368 million; the 2024 report lowered that further to 477 million, a reduction of 69 million.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":11" /><ref name=":2" /> Jose Rimon of Johns Hopkins University suggested, "We have been underestimating what is happening in terms of fertility change in Africa. Africa will probably undergo the same kind of rapid changes as east Asia did."<ref name=":2" />

== Drivers of population change ==
The population of a country or area grows or declines through the interaction of three demographic drivers: fertility, mortality, and migration.<ref name=":7" />

=== Fertility ===
[[File:Total Fertility Rate Map by Country.svg|thumb|right|Map of countries by fertility rate (2023), according to the [[Population Reference Bureau]] |233x233px]]
Fertility is expressed as the [[total fertility rate]] (TFR), a measure of the number of children on average that a woman will bear in her lifetime. With [[longevity]] trending towards uniform and stable values worldwide, the main driver of future population growth will be the evolution of the fertility rate.<ref name=":13">{{Cite web |date=2022 |title=World Population Prospects, Standard Projections, Archive, 2022 Revision,  Compact File, Median Variant tab, Total Fertility Rate column |url=https://population.un.org/wpp/Download/Archive/Standard/ |website=United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division.}}</ref>

Where fertility is high, demographers generally assume that fertility will decline and eventually stabilize at about two children per woman.<ref name=":7" />

During the period 2015–2020, the average world fertility rate was 2.5 children per woman, about half the level in 1950–1955 (5 children per woman). In the medium variant, global fertility is projected to decline further to 2.2 in 2045–2050 and to 1.8 in 2095–2100.<ref name=":13" /><ref name=":12" />

=== Mortality ===
If the [[mortality rate]] is relatively high and the resulting [[life expectancy]] is therefore relatively low, changes in mortality can have a material impact on population growth. When the mortality rate is low and life expectancy has therefore risen, a change in mortality has much less of an effect.<ref name=":7" />

Because [[child mortality]] has declined substantially over the last several decades,<ref name=":7" /> global [[life expectancy]] at birth, has risen from 48 years in 1950–1955 to 67 years in 2000–2005, is expected to keep rising to reach 77 years in 2045–2050 and 83 years in 2095–2100. In the more developed regions, the projected increase is from 76 years during the period 2000–2005 to 84 years during the period 2045–2050 and 90 in 2095–2100. Among the less developed countries, where life expectancy during the period 2000–2005 was just under 66 years, it is expected to be 76 years in 2045–2050 and 81 years by 2100.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022 |title=World Population Prospects, Standard Projections,  Archive, 2022 Revision,  Compact File, Estimates tab, Life Expectancy at Birth, both sexes (years) column |url=https://population.un.org/wpp/Download/Archive/Standard/ |website=United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2022 |title=World Population Prospects, Standard Projections, Archive, 2022 Revision,  Compact File, Variant tab, Life Expectancy at Birth, both sexes (years) column |url=https://population.un.org/wpp/Download/Archive/Standard/ |website=United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division}}</ref>

=== Migration ===
{{Main|International migration}}
Migration can have a significant effect on population change. Global south–south migration accounts for 38% of total migration, and global south–north for 34%.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2016|title=World Bank Migration and Remittances Factbook 2016|url=https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/bitstream/handle/10986/23743/9781464803192.pdf|website=World Bank Open Knowledge Archive|quote="According to the UN, the term “North” refers to countries or regions traditionally classifi ed for statistical purposes as “developed,” while the term “South” refers to those classifi ed as “developing.”}}</ref> For example, the United Nations reports that during the period 2010–2020, fourteen countries will have seen a net inflow of more than one million migrants, while ten countries will have seen a net outflow of similar proportions. The largest migratory outflows have been in response to demand for workers in other countries (Bangladesh, Nepal, and the Philippines) or to insecurity in the home country (Myanmar, Syria, and Venezuela). Belarus, Estonia, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Russia, Serbia, and Ukraine have experienced a net inflow of migrants over the decade, helping to offset population losses caused by a negative [[Rate of natural increase|natural increase]] (births minus deaths).<ref name=":6">{{Cite web|date=June 17, 2019|title=Growing at a slower pace, world population is expected to reach 9.7 billion in 2050 and could peak at nearly 11 billion around 2100|url=https://www.un.org/development/desa/en/news/population/world-population-prospects-2019.html|website=United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs}}</ref>

=== After 2050 ===
Projections of population beyond the year 2050 tend to vary depending on the organization making them because each make their own assumptions of the drivers of population change: fertility, mortality and migration. 

==== United Nations projections ====
The UN Population Division report of 2022 projects world population to continue growing after 2050, although at a steadily decreasing rate, to peak at 10.4 billion in 2086, and then to start a slow decline to about 10.3 billion in 2100 with a growth rate at that time of -0.1%.<ref name=":11" />

This projected growth of population, like all others, depends on assumptions about vital rates. For example, the chart below shows that the UN Population Division assumes that Total fertility rate (TFR), which has been steadily declining since 1963, will continue to decline, at varying paces depending on circumstances in individual regions, to a below-replacement level of 1.8 by 2100. Between now (2020) and 2100, regions with TFR currently below this rate, for example Europe, will see TFR rise. Regions with TFR above this rate will see TFR continue to decline.<ref name=":12">{{Cite web |date=2022 |title=World Population Prospects, Standard Projections, Archive, 2022 Revision,   Compact File, Estimates tab, Total Fertility Rate column |url=https://population.un.org/wpp/Download/Standard/MostUsed/ |website=United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division}}</ref><ref name=":13" />

==== Other projections ====
Other organizations have published different forecasts.
* A 2020 study published by [[The Lancet]] from researchers funded by the [[Global Burden of Disease Study]] promotes a lower growth scenario, projecting that world population will peak in 2064 at 9.7 billion and then decline to 8.8 billion in 2100. This projection assumes further advancement of [[women's rights]] globally.

Other assumptions can produce other results. Some of the authors of the 2004 UN report assumed that [[life expectancy]] would rise slowly and continuously. The projections in the report assume this with no upper limit, though at a slowing pace depending on circumstances in individual countries. By 2100, the report assumed life expectancy to be from 66 to 97 years, and by 2300 from 87 to 106 years, depending on the country. Based on that assumption, they expect that rising life expectancy will produce small but continuing population growth by the end of the projections, ranging from 0.03 to 0.07 percent annually. The hypothetical feasibility (and wide availability) of [[life extension]] by technological means would further contribute to long term (beyond 2100) population growth.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Newmark|first1=PA|last2=Sánchez Alvarado|first2=A|year=2002|title=Not your father's planarian: a classic model enters the era of functional genomics|journal=Nat Rev Genet|volume=3|issue=3|pages=210–219|doi=10.1038/nrg759|pmid=11972158|s2cid=28379017}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|last1=Bavestrello|first1=Giorgio|last2=Sommer|first2=Christian|last3=Sarà|first3=Michele|year=1992|title=Bi-directional conversion in Turritopsis nutricula (Hydrozoa)|journal=Scientia Marina|volume=56|issue=2–3|pages=137–140}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|last1=Martínez|first1=DE|year=1998|title=Mortality patterns suggest lack of senescence in hydra|journal=Exp Gerontol|volume=33|issue=3|pages=217–225|doi=10.1016/S0531-5565(97)00113-7|pmid=9615920|s2cid=2009972}} In an essay within the 2004 U.N. report, Tim Dyson said: "A rapid increase in life expectancy, which would raise the population pyramids, seems within reach, since it responds to an old and powerful demand for longevity."</ref>

== Growth regions ==
The table below shows that from 2020 to 2050 and beyond to 2100, the bulk of the world's population growth is projected to take place in [[Africa]]. Of the additional 1.9 billion people projected between 2020 and 2050, 1.2 billion will be added in Africa, 0.7 billion in Asia and zero in the rest of the world. Africa's share of global population is projected to grow from 17% in 2020 to 25% in 2050 and 38% by 2100, while the share of Asia will fall from 60% in 2020 to 55% in 2050 and 45% in 2100.<ref name=":10" /><ref name=":11" /> The strong growth of the African population will happen regardless of the rate of decrease of fertility, because of the high proportion of young people already living today, who are [[population momentum|in, or approaching, their fertile years]]. For example, the UN projects that the population of [[Nigeria]] will surpass that of the [[United States]] by about 2050.<ref name=":11" />

The UN projects that between 2020 and 2100 there will be declines in population growth in all six regions, that by 2100 three of them will be undergoing population decline, and the world will have entered a period of global population decline.

== Most populous nations by 2050 and 2100 ==
