Finland Population Profile By Allen Kim APES Per. 1

Finland’s Population Based on source Statistics Finland : Finland has a preliminary population figure of 5,448,025 people at the end of October 2013 Population increase of Finland is mainly from immigrants which were 14,750 persons higher than that of emigrants

Finland Population(con’t)

Finland Birth Rate As of April 12, 2013, Statistics Finland reports that the Birth Rate of Finland is 1.8 children per woman The Birth Rate continues to decrease slowly from 4.9 children per woman in 1969

Finland Birth Rate (con’t)

Finland Death Rate According to the World Bank Map July 2012, the death rate of Finland is 10.3 persons per 1,000 people. 10.3/1000= 0.013= 1.3% Death Rate Finland’s Death Rate increases slowly each year

Finland Death Rate (con’t)

Infant Mortality Rate As of 2013, Kaiser Family Foundation reports 3.34 deaths per 1,000 live births 3.34/1000 = 0.00334 = 0.33% Infant Mortality Rate

Life Expectancy Rate As of 2013, The World Bank reports the life expectancy of a male as 75.94 years and females at 83.02 years

Growth Rate 2000-2012

Education The main reason why I chose Finland was mainly because of the education system. “There are no mandated standardized tests in Finland, apart from one exam at the end of students’ senior year in high school. There are no rankings, no comparisons or competition between students, schools or regions. Finland’s schools are publicly funded. The people in the government agencies running them, from national officials to local authorities, are educators, not business people, military leaders or career politicians.” This form of education Has allowed Finland to be ranked 2nd in Education as of 2009 OECD Education Reports

(Above) A boy in a Finnish school expressing joy of education (Above) A boy in a Finnish school expressing joy of education. Source: Smithsonian This non-competitive educational system which stresses play may allow kids to express their creative aspects and full learning potential that increases Finland’s education ranking.

Education (con’t) “The present Finnish education system consists of daycare programs (for babies and toddlers) and a one-year "pre-school" (or kindergarten for six-year-olds); a nine-year compulsory basic comprehensive school (starting at age seven and ending at the age of fifteen); post-compulsory secondary general academic and vocational education; higher education (University and University of Applied Sciences); and adult (lifelong, continuing) education. The Nordic strategy for achieving equality and excellence in education has been based on constructing a publicly funded comprehensive school system without selecting, tracking, or streaming students during their common basic education.” 100% Literacy Rate 99.7% Graduating Primary School

Primary Industries Pulp and Paper Industry- Forest products were the major export industry. Pulp and Paper Industry accounted for half of Finnish exports in the 1970s. There are 52 sites in Finland for this industry and the major companies are ranked #1 and #3 Chemical Industry- Finland's largest industrial sectors with its roots in tar making in the 17th century. It produces plastics, chemicals, paints, oil products, pharmaceuticals, environmental products, biotech products and petrochemicals. Biotechnology is regarded as one of the most promising high-tech sectors in Finland and it is growing rapidly

Unemployment Rate As of January 2013, Statistics Finland reports a 8.7% Unemployment Rate

Income Per Capita As of 2012 The World Bank reports a $36,500 GDP per capita
