Exercise 2.2 Where are Fertility Rates High? Why?
ОглавлениеVisit the Population Reference Bureau’s data hub at https://www.prb.org/data. Using the tools you find there (which include tables, maps, and other resources), research the Total Fertility Rate of four or five countries, along with some other key indicators, like development, wealth, education for women. Where are large families (fertility rates > 3.5) more normal and why? Where are fertility rates lower (<2.5) and why? What possible support, policies, or interventions might realistically accelerate a decrease in fertility in high-growth countries?
