points to the gap between women’s reproductive intentions and their contraceptive behavior. For MDG monitoring, unmet need is expressed as a percentage based on women who are married or in a consensual union. Proportion of demand satisfied, women currently married/ in union aged 15-49, 2015. Source: United Nations Population Division. Percentage of total demand for family planning among married or in-union women aged 15 to 49 that is satisfied. Proportion of demand satisfied (PDS) = Contraceptive prevalence (CPR) divided by total demand for family planning (TD). Where total demand = Contraceptive prevalence rate plus unmet need for contraception rate (UNR), that is TD = CPR + UNR and PDS = CPR /(CPR+UNR)

Division. These figures refer to the average exponential rate of growth of the population over a given period, based on a medium variant projection. Population aged 10-24, per cent, 2015. Source: UNFPA calculation based on data from United Nations Population Division. These indicators present the proportion of the population between age 10 and age 24. Population aged 0-14, per cent, 2015. Source: UNFPA calculation based on data from United Nations Population Division. These indicators present the proportion of the population between age 0 and age 14. Population aged 15-64, per cent, 2015.

These indicators present the proportion of the population between aged 65 and older. Dependency ratio, 2015. Source: United Nations Population Division. Regional aggregates calculated by UNFPA based on data from United Nations Population Division. These indicators present the ratio of dependents (people younger than 15 or older than 64) to the working-age population (those ages 15-64). Data are shown as the proportion of dependents per 100 working-age population. Male and female life expectancy at birth (years), 2010/2015. United Nations Population Division. Regional aggregates calculated by UNFPA based on data from United Nations Population Division. These indicators present the number of years newborn children would live if subject to the mortality risks prevailing for the cross section of population at the time of their birth. Total fertility rate, 2010/2015. United Nations Population Division. Regional aggregates calculated by UNFPA based on data from United Nations Population Division. These indicators present the number of children who would be born per woman if she lived to the end of her childbearing years and bore children at each age in accordance with prevailing age-specific fertility rates.
