2054 Population

By 2054, the world’s population is projected to reach approximately 9.7 billion people, according to United Nations estimates. Asia will remain the most populous continent, home to over half of humanity, with India and China each sustaining populations around 1.4 billion, though India is expected to maintain its lead as the most populous country. Africa will experience the fastest growth, with its population likely surpassing 2.5 billion, driven by high birth rates in countries such as Nigeria, Ethiopia, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Europe’s population is expected to decline slightly, falling below 700 million due to aging and low fertility rates, while North America’s population will grow modestly, reaching around 400 million, primarily due to immigration. Latin America and the Caribbean will see slower growth, stabilizing near 700 million, and Oceania, including Australia, will approach 60 million. Urbanization will intensify, with megacities proliferating across Asia and Africa, reshaping regional demographics and global economic dynamics.
