What impact do lots of young people or lots of old people have on a country? CeJuw

Youthful population This is when there is a very high percentage of people under the age of 15. What strain may this put on that country?

The Gambia Youthful population case study VxxoYhttp:// VxxoY Why do people in Gambia have BIG families?

The Gambia What can you learn about Gambia from the Atlas? What is the capital city? Describe where it is on a map of Africa? Is Gambia an LEDC or an MEDC? How can you tell this? What is the birthrate?

Dependency Ratios Dependency Ratio: the relation between dependents (old and young) and economically active. The dependency ratio is calculated using the following formula: N.B: The dependent Population is the sum of old and young dependents. Examples: 1.The UK has a dependency ratio of 0.65 (2004) 2.India has a dependency ratio of 0.54 (2012) 3.Greece has a dependency ratio of 0.37 (2004) Examples: 1.The UK has a dependency ratio of 0.65 (2004) 2.India has a dependency ratio of 0.54 (2012) 3.Greece has a dependency ratio of 0.37 (2004)

Problems caused by Youthful Populations Negative Impacts of Youthful Populations might include: Cost of childcare and education Increased dependency ratio Increased cost of child benefits paid by the government Shortage of workers (in the short-term) Cost of healthcare (midwives, health visitors, etc.) Spending diverted from defense, transport, etc.

Advantages of Youthful Populations Positive Impacts of Youthful Populations might include: Lower death rates so less money spent on care homes/hospitals Educated and IT literate population (many elderly people are unfamiliar with new technology) Abundance of future workers Strong military in the future Large future market (young people are often interested in consumer goods)
