2076 Population

By the year 2076, the world’s population is projected to reach approximately 9.7 to 10 billion people, though growth rates will vary significantly by region. Africa is expected to experience the most dramatic increase, potentially doubling its population to over 2.5 billion, with countries like Nigeria, Ethiopia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo among the world’s most populous. Asia will remain the most populated continent, but its growth will slow, with India possibly surpassing China as the largest country, each with populations around 1.4 to 1.5 billion. Europe’s population is likely to decline, especially in Eastern and Southern Europe, due to aging and low birth rates, while North America’s population will grow modestly, driven largely by immigration, with the United States remaining a demographic leader in the region. Latin America and the Caribbean will see slower growth, with Brazil and Mexico continuing as major population centers. Oceania, led by Australia and Papua New Guinea, will experience gradual increases. Urbanization will intensify globally, with megacities proliferating, especially in Africa and Asia, reshaping the world’s demographic landscape by 2076.
