2035 Population

By 2035, the world’s population is projected to reach approximately 8.9 billion people. Asia will remain the most populous continent, home to over 5 billion people, with China and India together accounting for more than 2.7 billion, though India is expected to have surpassed China as the world’s most populous country. Africa will experience the fastest growth, with its population likely exceeding 1.7 billion, driven by high birth rates in countries like Nigeria, Ethiopia, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Europe’s population will continue to decline slightly, falling below 700 million, as aging and low fertility rates persist, particularly in Eastern and Southern Europe. Latin America and the Caribbean will see moderate growth, reaching around 700 million, while North America’s population will approach 400 million, largely due to continued immigration and natural increase in the United States and Canada. Oceania, led by Australia and Papua New Guinea, will have a population nearing 50 million. Urbanization will intensify, with over two-thirds of people living in cities, and megacities in Asia and Africa expanding rapidly.
