UN Projected Population Growth Rates
for last 5 years of each decade
year

United Nations population growth projections carry all the way through the 21st century, and are made in 5-year increments. This map shows only every other one of these, reflecting the latter half of each decade, starting with the 2015-2020 estimate. Note the continued high growth rates anticipated for many of the sub-Saharan African countries, displayed as darker red colors on the map. On the other hand, many of the European countries are likely to have negative growth, as shown by nearly transparent colors. The full dataset can be found here.
