a. Projections are based on present trends; hence the slight decline in growth rates results only from the slightly declining trend in A few countries. The projections include the probable impact of AIDS. They do not include the impact of more successful population programs.

b. The Total Fertility Rate (TFR) is the average number of children who would foe born alive to a woman during her lifetime if she were to pass through her childbearing years conforming to the age-specific fertility rates of a given year.

Fig. A-4.2.Population Estimates and Projections Based on Targeted Decline of 50 Percent in Total Fertility Rate by 2030

a. Assumes that a fertility transition will start in any country in the 5-year period when the combined male and female Life expectancy reaches 50 years, but in any case no later than in 2005. This implies that for SSA as a whole the TFR will be 50 percent lower during 2025-2030 than it is today.

b. even when the net reproduction rate (NM) reaches one, the age structure Is such that the number of women in, or yet to enter, their childbearing years causes total births to exceed total deaths. Populations will therefore continue to increase for considerable periods before reaching their hypotetical stationary levels.

c. Sub-Saharan Africa here excludes Namibia and South Africa.

d. Population estimates for Namibia (1980 and 1990), Rwanda (1990) and South Africa (1980 and 1990) as shown here and reported in World Bank I993b have been significantly revised since the publication of demographic projections in Bos and others 1992.

a The estimated contraceptive prevalence rates (CPR) were derived by applying Bongaarts' model to available country specific information, including data on CPR, contraceptive m x and proportion married, with assumptions on likely changes. (For countries without such information proxy data from countries with a similar socio-cultural background were utilized.) The CPR estimates refer to the percentage of women aged 14-49 using contraception (both modem and traditional). For India and China, they refer to married women aged 15-44. Countries in this table are selected on the basis of the size of their population (over 5 million) and/or availability of information from Phase I of the Demographic and Health Surveys (Oct. 1984 Sept. 1989).
